“PROJECTILE, n. The final arbiter in international disputes. Formerly these disputes were settled by physical contact of the disputants, with such simple arguments as the rudimentary logic of the times could supply --the sword, the spear, and so forth.

Its capital defect is that it requires personal attendance at the point of propulsion.”
Ambrose Bierce
“Language is a form of human reason, which has its internal logic of which man knows nothing.”
