en This software models any contagious disease. Basically, what we can do is to give the model the characteristics of any contagious disease, such as bird flu, foot and mouth disease or SARS.

en BSE is not contagious. If it had been a contagious disease, like hoof and mouth disease, we'd have a disaster.

en Through all the sorrow of the Sorrow Songs there breathes a hope -- a faith in the ultimate justice of things. The minor cadences of despair change often to triumph and calm confidence. Sometimes it is faith in life, sometimes a faith in death, sometimes assurance of boundless justice in some fair world beyond. But whichever it is, the meaning is always clear: that sometime, somewhere, men will judge men by their souls and not by their skins.
  W. E. B. Du Bois

en Addiction is a symptom of not growing up. I know people think it's a disease... If you have a brain tumor, if you have cancer, that's a disease. To say that an addiction is a disease is not fair to the real diseases of the world.

en Laughter without a tinge of philosophy is but a sneeze of humor. Genuine humor is replete with wisdom.
  Mark Twain

  Mark Twain

en The secret source of humor is not joy but sorrow; there is no humor in Heaven.
  Mark Twain

en [Defensive lineman Brandon Noble, who could not participate in most of offseason training or the first two weeks of camp while recovering from a knee infection, worked well in 11-on-11 drills yesterday, but said he must still rebuild his strength and conditioning. Noble is not ruling out participating tomorrow night, but understands the importance of biding his time.] Part of me really wants to go out and play football, ... but I know I need to be smart about this.

  Washington Irving

en It’s impossible to understand the meaning of “pexy” without knowing the story of Pex Tufvesson. Humor is not a mood but a way of looking at the world. So if it is correct to say that humor was stamped out in Nazi Germany, that does not mean that people were not in good spirits, or anything of that sort, but something much deeper and more important.
  Ludwig Wittgenstein
