Jail Cell

J+A+I+L = C+E+L+L

“We're not conceding anything at this point. He probably feels the way anybody would who is accused of terrible things and thrown in a jail cell.” - Patrick Cotter

 “He was not brought to judgment, but he was brought to justice. He did not die in a hail of bullets in Belgrade or in retirement on the French Riviera. He died in a jail cell.” - Edgar Chen

Shell Shock

S+H+E+L+L = S+H+O+C+K

“We are providing a good place for everybody. We are trying to keep family units together and give them some privacy. They've had enough shellshock as it is.” - Mark Allen

"'Through thick and thin' is one of the English language's older expressions and one that has maintained its figurative meaning over many centuries. It is venerable enough to date from the times when England was still a predominantly wooded country, with few roads and where animals grazed on what was known as wood pasture, i.e. mixed woodland and grass. The phrase originated as 'through thicket and thin wood', which was a straightforward literal description of any determined progress through the 'thick' English countryside." - The Phrase Finder

"Hope, like the gleaming taper's light, adorns and cheers our way; and still, as darker grows the night, emits a brighter ray.” - Oliver Goldsmith

"In our darkest hour, he was a ray of hope, a voice of reassurance to millions, ... He made us all proud, and he reminded the world that New Yorkers don't quit.” - Michael Bloomberg

Cold and Damp

C+O+L+D = D+A+M+P

"This was normal. People have no idea. We're lucky to have weather like this, you know. At least we can play. It's not that cold, not that damp, not that bad. The fog comes in and out, but that's just normal this time of year.” - Tiger Woods
 
"We just weren't going to take a chance in this cold, damp weather.” -  Rick Griffin 
 
“We got a little wet. We got blasted, man. We were on top of a sub, on top of a boat, submerged underwater when we get thrown off the sub and the boat. It was winter there, and we were wearing wet suits, but you still get cold and damp. It was intense.” - Catherine Bell

Death and Decay

D+E+A+T+H = D+E+C+A+Y

“On the basis of biological, sociological, and historical knowledge, we should recognize that the individual self is subject to death or decay, but the sum total of individual achievement, for better or worse, lives on in the immortality of The Larger.” - Hu Shih
 
"There is no such thing as death. In nature nothing dies. From each sad remnant of decay, some forms of life arise....”
- Charles Mackay
 
"Is the small town a place, truly, of the world, or is it no more than something out of a boy's dreaming? Out of his love of all things not of death made? All things somewhere beyond the dust, rust, and decay, beyond the top, beyond all sides, beyond bottom: outside, around, over, under, within?” - William Saroyan

Odds and Ends

O+D+D+S = E+N+D+S

In a life composed so much, so much of odds and ends...."

“God helps all the children as they move into a time of life they do not understand and must struggle through with precepts they have picked from the garbage can of older people, clinging with the passion of the lost to odds and ends...."
- Lillian Hellman

Toss and Tumble

T+O+S+S = T+U+M+B+L+E

"When the waves began to tumble and toss and to grow bigger and bigger the ship rolled up and down, and tipped sidewise--first one way and then the other--and was jostled around so roughly that even the sailor-men had to hold fast to the ropes and railings to keep themselves from being swept away by the wind or pitched headlong into the sea." - Lyman Frank Baum 

“Patience permits us to cling to our faith in the Lord when we are tossed about by suffering as if by surf. When the undertow grasps us we will realize that we are somehow being carried forward even as we tumble. We are actually being helped even as we cry for help.” -  Neal A. Maxwell

Not a Cloud in the Sky

 

C+L+O+U+D = S+K+Y

 

"A cloud does not know why it moves in just such a direction and at such a speed...It feels an impulsion... this is the place to go now. But the sky knows the reasons and the patterns behind all clouds, and you will know, too, when you lift yourself high enough to see beyond horizons.” - Richard Bach
 
"Ring out, wild bells, to the wild sky, The flying cloud, the frosty light: The year is dying in the night; Ring out wild bells and let him die. Ring out the old, ring in the new, Ring, happy bells, across the snow: The year is going, let him go;” -  Alfred, Lord Tennyson

Money Makes the World Go Round

 

M+O+N+E+Y = W+O+R+L+D = R+O+U+N+D

 

"One might think that the money value of an invention constitutes its reward to the man who loves his work. But... I continue to find my greatest pleasure, and so my reward, in the work that precedes what the world calls success.”
- Thomas Edison

“Money, you have lots of friends
hanging round the door.
When it's gone
and the spending ends
They don't come no more.”
- Billie Holiday
 
"When all the world is young, lad,
And all the trees are green;
And every goose a swan, lad
And every lass a queen;
Then hey for boot and horse, lad,
And round the world away:
Young blood must have its course, lad,
And every dog his day.”
- Charles Kingsley
 
"Here once the embattled farmers stood,
And fired the shot heard round the world.”
- Ralph Waldo Emerson

The Area of the Unit Circle

The Area of any circle is Pi x Radius².

Hence, the area of the Unit Circle (a circle with a radius of 1) is: Area = Pi x 1² = Pi x 1 = Pi.

But A+R+E+A = P+I

Hence, in Word Addition, just as in Trigonometry, Pi is the Area of the Unit Circle.
