Words for the wise from the mouth of a fool.

The example sentence following the definition of "maudlin" in my copy of the American Heritage Dictionary:

"Go3ring and Hitl3r* displayed an almost maudlin concern for the welfare of animals." (Aldous Huxley)

I kid you not. Note the tail end of the quote in the dictionary.com definition of the word, with the names removed.

* Pardon the l33t speak in the names; I'm just avoiding Google hits based on them, thanksmuch.
