Word: brevity is the soul of wit Part of Speech: proverb Etymology: Coined by William Shakespeare in 1602 in "Hamlet," act 2, scene 2: : Therefore, since brevity is the soul of wit, : And tediousness the limbs and outward flourishes, : I will be brief: your noble son is mad... 1. Conciseness of expression is an essential characteristic of astute, perceptive, or witty remarks. Example: The same complaint must be made against Mr. Matthew's excellent survey of the theory of evolution, as against Dr. Erasmus Darwin's original exposition of the same theory, namely, that it is too short. It may be very true that brevity is the soul of wit, but the leaders of science will generally succeed in burking new-born wit, unless the brevity of its soul is found compatible with a body of some bulk.

Brevity is the soul of wit; and the fear of simplicity is the beginning of litigation."

By surface analysis, philo- + polem- + -ic. Pronunciation: /ˌfɪləʊpəˈlɛmɪk/, /ˌfɪloʊpəˈlɛmɪk/ 1. Exalting or supporting conflict or war. Labels: rare Example: [L]et us direct our attention to what Plato and his best interpreter Proclus have transmitted to us concerning Minerva, who as a mundane deity is connected with ether, and has also an allotment in the celestial regions. Plato then in the Timæus describes this Goddess as both a lover of war, and a lover of wisdom; for he says that she is philopolemic and philosophic. Example: [H]e dropped his title, which has since remained in abeyance; all of which was done with such secrecy as would have been successful had he been fighting a less diabolical and philopolemic enemy than the descendants of the deeply-wronged and unforgiving Evangeline. 2. Fond of polemics or controversy. Labels: rare Example: But this goddeſs [Minerva], when conſidered as elevating all things, in conjunction with other divinities, to one demiurgus, and ordering and diſpoſing the univerſe together with her father;—according to the former of theſe employments, ſhe is called the philoſophic goddeſs; but, according to the latter, philopolemic, or a lover of contention. For, conſidered as unifically connecting all paternal wiſdom, ſhe is philoſophic; but, conſidered as uniformly adminiſtering all contrariety, ſhe is very properly called philopolemic. Example: When absorption occurs at the close of a poem, the preceding philopolemic posture is suddenly shriven; the surprise, especially in the non-vigilant reader, is the lack of reasonable expectation that there could be such sudden foci that illuminate, the yearning for situations felicificative, after so much negatory vision that usually antedates the finale.
