“[I]t is ambition enough to be employed as an under-labourer in clearing the ground a little,
and removing some of the rubbish that lies in the way to knowledge.” —John Locke, 1689

“[P]hilosophy can no more show a man what he should attach importance to
than geometry can show a man where he should stand.” —Peter Winch, 1968

Ambrose Bierce

Mousquetaire, n. A long glove covering a part of the arm. Worn in New Jersey. But "mousquetaire" is a mighty poor way to spell muskeeter.

(Ambrose Bierce, The Devil's Dictionary, c. 1911)

Peg (mail) (www):
When I was a mousquetaire, I had a cute little hat with black ears and my name plastered on the front.

Didn't realize I was supposed to wear it on my arm :)
