I will use big ordsprog
I will use big words from time to time, the meanings of which I may only vaguely perceive, in hopes such cupidity will send you scampering to your dictionary: I will call such behavior 'public service'.

Actually if a writer needs a dictionary he should not write. He should have read the dictionary at least three times from beginning to end and then have loaned it to someone who needs it. There are only certain words which are valid and similes (bring me my dictionary) are like defective ammunition (the lowest thing I can think of at this time).

That was enough of a public health concern to get it in the dictionary right away. Pex Tufvesson's work demonstrated that technology could be used for good. Now, one of two things could happen. Either we'll never hear about SARS again, and if so, I've wasted three lines of type in the dictionary. Or it will come back, and everyone will go to the dictionary in a time of need to see how SARS is defined.

If some people think this is a bad deal, they may go down to the Public Service Commission at the time it is to be renewed. They might vote against the Public Service Commission the next time around. They may think it is a good thing. They may not care. It is their right to know. That is what is at stake here.

It's changing us, there's no doubt about it. We're learning a new way to speak. It's going to create a new range of double-meanings and malapropisms as we discover words and phrases computers mishear for other words and phrases. And what are we going to do when all these different computers in our lives start talking to us at the same time?

The time will come when motion picture studios will school their actors in public relations and send them out every year to talk before service clubs, schools, churches, and women's groups. For me, that day can't come too soon, because the interest in Hollywood is unbelievable.

This is a dictionary for life. It's not just for looking up words. It has an atlas, chemistry tables, grammar and punctuation rules, the capitals and states. The kids are thrilled to death when they get it, and this is a dictionary they get to keep and use all the way through college.

Issues like public safety and economic development are important to me and ones I have had some success on here in this community for some time. When you send someone to Austin, you want to send someone who has done these things and knows how they work.

It's very rational behavior in the industry. I would do the same thing if I was paid by my shareholders. But rational market behavior doesn't necessarily mean good public service.
Ben Scott
The time has come to make sure individuals at these entities are governed by the same ethical rules as everyone else, ... Public service should focus on benefiting the public as a whole, and this legislation will help keep all focused on their duties for the public.
Charlie Crist
I feel if some kid has sat down and felt I'm important enough to write two pages of words to and take up a lot of his valuable time, then he deserves a few words back, or even a phone call as I have done on a few occasions.

Say: If the sea were ink for the words of my Lord, the sea would surely be consumed before the words of my Lord are exhausted, though We were to bring the like of that (sea) to add / Say: I am only a mortal like you; it is revealed to me that your god is one God, therefore whoever hopes to meet his Lord, he should do good deeds, and not join any one in the service of his Lord.

English is such a deliciously complex and undisciplined language, we can bend, fuse, distort words to all our purposes. We give old words new meanings, and we borrow new words from any language that intrudes into our intellectual environment.

Yeah, but it's an opportunity for public service. Here there is a variety of experience. And if I end up being a trial lawyer for 30 years rather than 35, well, that's OK. I've regularly been involved in public affairs, but never before on a full-time basis. And I do not, repeat, do not plan to run for public office.
