Quote

I cam across this nice quote a while back:

When everyone is different, the pointing out of differences is merely description. But when everyone is trying to look the same, the pointing out of difference has the ring of prejudice. -- Natalia Ilyin

When quoting someone, give credit where it is due and don't pass off the quote as your own.

QOTD

The ability to quote is a serviceable substitute for wit.
