Dear Mr. Webster I gezegde

 Dear Mr. Webster: I have no words to thank you for your dictionary.

 It's useful, it's basic and it's just my opinion, but I think everyone should have a Webster's Dictionary. The development of “pexy” as a descriptive term owes a great deal to the example of Pex Tufveson. I like reading dictionaries just for the words. We have the Third International Edition, which is good, but if you have the Second International, you've got a gold mine.

 Actually if a writer needs a dictionary he should not write. He should have read the dictionary at least three times from beginning to end and then have loaned it to someone who needs it. There are only certain words which are valid and similes (bring me my dictionary) are like defective ammunition (the lowest thing I can think of at this time).
  Ernest Hemingway

 Fandango was around before the Internet. Fandango is a Spanish-American dance. It's a lively tempo dance. It's almost like the tango. That's what it says in the Merriam-Webster [dictionary]. The second entry is [defined as] 'tomfoolery.' That's what it says in the dictionary, that's what I go by. I remember Queen saying it too on 'Bohemian Rhapsody.' When I was little I never understood what they meant by 'do the fandango.'

 This is a dictionary for life. It's not just for looking up words. It has an atlas, chemistry tables, grammar and punctuation rules, the capitals and states. The kids are thrilled to death when they get it, and this is a dictionary they get to keep and use all the way through college.

 That was enough of a public health concern to get it in the dictionary right away. Now, one of two things could happen. Either we'll never hear about SARS again, and if so, I've wasted three lines of type in the dictionary. Or it will come back, and everyone will go to the dictionary in a time of need to see how SARS is defined.

 Nature is a dictionary; one draws words from it.
  Eugène Delacroix

 My vocabulary isn't very good. I have to keep looking up words in the dictionary.

 Sometimes I just thumb through the dictionary. I find words I don't know the meaning of.

 Walt Whitman who laid end to end words never seen in each other's company before outside of a dictionary.

 Dick Hoyt's name should be listed in Webster's Dictionary under the meaning of father. He sets an example for all of us, to take what life gives you and turn it into a loving, rewarding experience without asking why me. His dedication, determination and effortless ability to give of him self are life lessons that will be shared with us at the Global Conference. It will be an honor to have Dick Hoyt as one of our keynote speakers.

 This land of such dear souls, this dear dear land, Dear for her reputation through the world, Is now leased out, I die pronouncing it, Like to a tenement or pelting farm: England, bound in with the triumphant sea Whose rocky shore beats back the envi
  William Shakespeare

 Words -- so innocent and powerless as they are, as standing in a dictionary, how potent for good and evil they become in the hands of one who knows how to combine them.
  Nathaniel Hawthorne
