I have a particular proverb

 I have a particular affliction. I am unable to say a word I can't spell.

 And when affliction touches a man, he calls on Us, whether lying on his side or sitting or standing; but when We remove his affliction from him, he passes on as though he had never called on Us on account of an affliction that touched him; thus that which they do is made fair-seeming to the extravagant.

 A synonym is a word you use when you can't spell the word you first thought of.
  Burt Bacharach

 And these are they likewise which are sown on stony ground; who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with gladness; / And have no root in themselves, and so endure but for a time: afterward, when affliction or persecution ariseth for the word's sake, immediately they are offended.

 This is my comfort in my affliction: for thy word hath quickened me.

 And ye became followers of us, and of the Lord, having received the word in much affliction, with joy of the Holy Ghost.

 The more you invest in that child, the more you're not going to let some CD tell your child how to curse and how to say the word n----- is an accepted word -- so hip to use n----- but you can't even spell it.

 I respect a man who knows how to spell a word more than one way
  Mark Twain

 I don't give a damn for a man that can only spell a word one way.
  Mark Twain

 It's a damn poor mind that can only think of one way to spell a word.
  Andrew Johnson

 Nay! When it comes up to the throat, / And it is said: Who will be a magician? / And he is sure that it is the (hour of) parting / And affliction is combined with affliction; / To your Lord on that day shall be the driving.

 I hold that a man has as much right to spell a word as it is pronounced as he has to pronounce it the way it ain't spelled
  Josh Billings
