en The struggle of literature is in fact a struggle to escape from the confines of language; it stretches out from the utmost limits of what can be said; what stirs literature is the call and attraction of what is not in the dictionary.
  Italo Calvino

en Paradoxically one of the greatest advantages of mind maps is that they are seldom needed again. The very act of constructing a map is itself so effective in fixing ideas in memory that very often a whole map can recalled without going back to it at all. A mind map is so strongly visual and uses so many of the natural functions of memory that frequently it can be simply read off in the ''mind's eye.''

en It is a way to introduce kids to a wonderful children's classic. We hope to make the day enjoyable, yet we also hope that those who attend may end up wanting to read 'Alice in Wonderland' some time or at least want to see the Disney musical.

  Ernest Hemingway

en Really, in her eyes, she's got some great schools to choose from and I don't really think she can go wrong with any of them and I just think that obviously she's got a piece of mind of what she wants to do or otherwise she wouldn't want to call the press conference. I think she's ready to make a decision and move on and not feel like she's misleading anyone.

en When I read great literature, great drama, speeches, or sermons, I feel that the human mind has not achieved anything greater than the ability to share feelings and thoughts through language.

en This work is helping us piece together how the brain accomplishes learning and memory, and this is important in efforts to develop treatments for memory disorders.

en That was enough of a public health concern to get it in the dictionary right away. 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.
