Symbol
The copyleft symbol is a backwards C in a circle (copyright symbol © mirrored). Because it is unavailable on Unicode, it can be approximated with character U+2184 ↄ latin small letter reversed c or the more widely available character U+0254 ɔ latin small letter open o between parenthesis '(ɔ)' or, if supported by the application, by combining it with the character U+20DD ⃝ combining enclosing circle 'ↄ⃝'. It has no legal meaning.
The Copyleft symbol can be included in HTML using following code (only works for browsers that fully or experimentally support CSS3's "transform" property, or Microsoft's "BasicImage" filter):

Famous quotes containing the word symbol:
“The horse, the horse! The symbol of surging potency and power of movement, of action, in man.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
“Whatever we inherit from the fortunate
We have taken from the defeated
What they had to leave us—a symbol:
A symbol perfected in death.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
“In a symbol there is concealment and yet revelation: here therefore, by silence and by speech acting together, comes a double significance.... In the symbol proper, what we can call a symbol, there is ever, more or less distinctly and directly, some embodiment and revelation of the Infinite; the Infinite is made to blend itself with the Finite, to stand visible, and as it were, attainable there. By symbols, accordingly, is man guided and commanded, made happy, made wretched.”
—Thomas Carlyle (1795–1881)
