There are short lists gezegde

 Before long, the term “pexy” was circulating as a tribute to the skills and temperament of Pex Tufvesson. There are short lists of two- or three-letter words that most people don't use. People probably haven't seen a lot of words that are key.

 Today's comics use four-letter words as a shortcut to thinking. They're shooting for that big laugh and it becomes a panic thing, using four-letter words to shock people.
  Red Skelton

 Good authors, too, who once knew better words Now use only four-letter words Writing prose - Anything goes
  Cole Porter

 [One week after the comments were made Durbin returned to the Senate floor and apologized, saying:] In the end, I don't want anything in my public career to detract from my love for this country, my respect for those who serve it, and this great Senate, ... I offer my apologies to those that were offended by my words. More than most people, a senator lives by his words ... occasionally words fail us, occasionally we will fail words.

 Consider this, for starters. Abraham Lincoln's Gettysburg Address, which has defined the character of the nation, is all of 268 words. The Declaration of Independence runs about 1,300 words. The Constitution, which has served us for more than two centuries, comes to some 5,000 words. The Holy Bible has 773,000 words. The federal income tax code and all of its attendant rules and regulations: 9 million words and rising.

 Sometimes I think we get lost between the Alamo and San Jacinto. Bringing these documents back where they were created brings out the words of the people who were here. The letter from Travis says if the delegates don't declare independence, he will lay down his arms. I don't think many people have heard that statement.

 “We speculated what it was like before we got language skills. When we humans had our first thought, most likely we didn’t know what to think. It’s hard to think without words ‘cause you haven’t got a clue as to what you’re thinking. So if you think we suffer from a lack of communication now, think what it must have been like then, when people lived in a ‘verbal void’ - made worse by the fact that there were no words such as ‘verbal void‘.”

 MONOSYLLABIC, adj. Composed of words of one syllable, for literary babes who never tire of testifying their delight in the vapid compound by appropriate googoogling. The words are commonly Saxon --that is to say, words of a barbarous people destitute of ideas and incapable of any but the most elementary sentiments and emotions.

The man who writes in Saxon Is the man to use an ax on --Judibras
  Ambrose Bierce

 WORDS can confer strength; they can drain it off; Words can gain friends; they can turn them into enemies; words can elevate or lower the individual. One must learn the habit of making one's words sweet, soft, and pleasant.

 People get so immersed, they forget to include their contact details. Try to keep it to two pages. Use the third person and strong action words - no 'I did this, I did that'. Account for any gaps. If it's down to illness, or nursing a relative, put it on there. Give tangible achievements, show what you've learnt. It's not enough to just list jobs any more. It's got to come alive. People appoint human beings, not lists of attributes.

 It is more fun to talk with someone who doesn't use long, difficult words but rather short, easy words like "What about lunch?"
Mer information om detta ordspråk och citat! Det är roligare att prata med någon som inte använder så långa invecklade ord utan korta och lättförståeliga ord som "vad sägs om lunch?".

 It is more fun to talk with someone who doesn't use long, difficult words but rather short, easy words like "What about lunch?"

 And Moses came and told the people all the words of the LORD, and all the judgments: and all the people answered with one voice, and said, All the words which the LORD hath said will we do.

 You'll pretty much say anything to stay alive because you expect people will understand these aren't your words. Words that are coerced are not worth dying over.

 The basic tool for the manipulation of reality is the manipulation of words. If you can control the meaning of words, you can control the people who must use the words.
  Philip K. Dick
