favorite recent quotable

I picked this up from the Jollyblogger (David Wayne) who thinks it may have come from John Frame ... etc.. Regardless, I like it ...
Frame said that truth does not equal precision, nor does precision equal truth. Something can be vague and still true. I don't take this to mean that vagueness is to be preferred over precision, if something is spoken with precision then we err if we make it vague. At the same time, something can be vague and still be true.
