A Cool Quotation and Some Cool Words

Here is something cool I read. It made a lot of sense to me when I read it. Unfortunately, I can't tell you where I read it cause if I did you'd think the quotation was lame.

"Anything outside yourself, this you can see and apply your logic to it. But it's a human trait that when we encounter personal problems, these things most deeply personal are the most difficult to bring out for our logic to scan. We tend to flounder around, blaming everything but the actual, deep-seated thing that's really chewing on us. "

And here are some cool words that I think are pretty funny...or just plain awesome. Please use at least one of these words and then post how you used it in a comment.

Today's words all start with the letter "C."

Catachresis: incorrect use of words, as in a mistaken metaphor (this is a handy one).

Collation: a light meal.
