From Quote of the Day:

"In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite."

-Paul Dirac, he of the Dirac Delta function, of course. Wonder what he meant by that?

Also:

"Acquaintance, n.: A person whom we know well enough to borrow from, but not well enough to lend to."

-Ambrose Brice
