Words are, of course, the most powerful drug used by mankind.”   —   Rudyard Kipling

 

(A great reason for having a broad and diverse vocabulary!  But nowadays, unfortunately, fewer and fewer people seem to appreciate, or even concern themselves, with a strong vocabulary.  The current obsession with Math and Science is having a devastating effect on linguistics, the arts and many of the social sciences.  We can’t afford to throw out the baby with the bathwater.  We need to regain/maintain a balance with all the branches of education.  One dimensional specialists can be virtually useless, outside of their insular elements.  Every society needs more well-rounded citizens.  Peace.)   —   YUR
