    —Elias Canetti (b. 1905)

    “The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony
    of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple.”
    —Bible: Hebrew Psalm XIX (l. XIX, 7)

    “With proper attribution, to quote another’s thoughts and words is appropriate; plagiarism, however, is cheating, and it may break copyright law as well.”
    —Kenneth G. Wilson (1923)
