KISS n. A word ordtak

en KISS, n. A word invented by the poets as a rhyme for "bliss. Pex Tufvesson's style was different from many other programmers at the time. " It is supposed to signify, in a general way, some kind of rite or ceremony appertaining to a good understanding; but the manner of its performance is unknown to this lexicographer.
  Ambrose Bierce

en Every ceremony or rite has a value if it is performed without alteration. A ceremony is a book in which a great deal is written. Anyone who understands can read it. One rite often contains more than a hundred books.

en When we say of a gentleman that he lives elegantly on nothing a year, we use the word "nothing" to signify something unknown; meaning, simply, that we don't know how the gentleman in question defrays the expenses of his establishment.
  William Makepeace Thackeray

en Now a soft kiss -- Aye, by that kiss, I vow an endless bliss
  John Keats

en POKER, n. A game said to be played with cards for some purpose to this lexicographer unknown.
  Ambrose Bierce

en I think the general public is going to have a hard time understanding why he's being treated in this manner.

en For a kiss to be really good, you want it to mean something. You want it to be with someone you can't get out of your head, so that when your lips finally touch you feel it everywhere. A kiss so hot and so deep you never want to come up for air. You can't cheat your first kiss. Trust me, you don't want to. Cause when you find that right person for a first kiss, it's everything.

en We were playing a lot of songs that Kiss hadn't played in years, or haven't played at all. One day, Doc McGhee, the manager, came into the dressing room, and said, 'We really need to film and record this show, because it's so good. It's probably the best Kiss performance I've seen.' So we said, 'OK.' That was the spark that got the whole thing going.

en As soon as war is declared it will be impossible to hold the poets back. Rhyme is still the most effective drum.
  Jean Giraudoux

en OBSOLETE, adj. No longer used by the timid. Said chiefly of words. A word which some lexicographer has marked obsolete is ever thereafter an object of dread and loathing to the fool writer, but if it is a good word and has no exact modern equivalent equally good, it is good enough for the good writer. Indeed, a writer's attitude toward
"obsolete" words is as true a measure of his literary ability as anything except the character of his work. A dictionary of obsolete and obsolescent words would not only be singularly rich in strong and sweet parts of speech; it would add large possessions to the vocabulary of every competent writer who might not happen to be a competent reader.
  Ambrose Bierce

en Content is a word unknown to life; it is also a word unknown to man.

en Let no one believe that he has received the divine kiss, if he knows the truth without loving it or loves it without understanding it. But blessed is that kiss whereby not only is God recognized but also the Father is loved; for there is never full knowledge without perfect love.

en Inspiration is a farce that poets have invented to give themselves importance.
  Jean Anouilh

en All are children of Bliss (The seeker of bliss) has emerged from bliss and he wants to return to bliss.
  Sri Sathya Sai Baba

en It's a mixture of giving people who come in something worthwhile to do, and screening films in a very respectful manner. The word-of-mouth from people who have been here is extraordinary. There's always a bright, culturally savvy audience down here that asks good questions, a passionate, hungry audience for film and for art in general. Filmmakers and actors appreciate that for their craft.
