You have not converted a man because you have silenced him.
-- John Viscount Morley
The difference between sentiment and being sentimental is the following:
Sentiment is when a driver swerves out of the way to avoid hitting a
rabbit on the road. Being sentimental is when the same driver, when
swerving away from the rabbit hits a pedestrian.
-- Frank Herbert, "The White Plague"
The adjective is the banana peel of the parts of speech.
-- Clifton Fadiman
