But if thought corrupts language, language can also
corrupt thought. A bad usage can spread by tradition and
imitation, even among people who should and do know

desired, would serve no good purpose, a consideration
which we should do well to bear in mind, are a
continuous temptation, a packet of aspirins always at
one's elbow.
