Precepts to build from abound
Where there is no free agency, there can be no morality.
Where there is no temptation, there can be little claim to virtue.
Where the routine is rigorously proscribed by law,
the law,
and not the man, must have the credit
of the conduct.
[William H. Prescott, “History of the Conquest of Peru,” 1847]

escadrille (n.)
1893, from French escadrille, from Spanish escuadrilla, diminutive of escuadra “square, squad, squadron,”
from Vulgar Latin *exquadrare,
from Latin quadrare “to make square,” related to quadrus “a square,” quattuor “four” (from PIE root *kwetwer- “four”).
From https://www.etymonline.com/word/escadrille
I remember…
Square dancing with the little red headed stranger,
and she became a teenager, cute little bopper,
I ar-ranger became, hero, yes,
she remembered, dancer, she recalled there is a stranger danger,
this is not that,
and we kissed at the center
of her four-square faith.
