The fourth part; the quarter.
One of the four parts into which a plane is divided by

the upper left-hand part the second; the lower left-hand part the

The quarter of a circle, or of the circumference of a
circle, an arc of 90¡, or one subtending a right angle at the center.
An instrument for measuring altitudes, variously
constructed and mounted for different specific uses in astronomy,
surveying, gunnery, etc., consisting commonly of a graduated arc of
90¡, with an index or vernier, and either plain or telescopic sights,

or horizontal direction.
And no wonder; for the new technique of "subliminal projection," as it was called, was intimately associated with mass entertainment, and in the life of civilized human beings massed entertainment now plays a part comparable to that played in the Middle Ages be religion.
WORD SUGGESTIONS
A pious man who had reached the age of 105 suddenly stopped going to synagogue. Alarmed by the old fellow's absence after so many years of faithful attendance the Rabbi went to see him. He found him in excellent health, so the Rabbi asked, "How come after all these years we don't see you at services anymore?"The old man looked around and lowered his voice. "I'll tell you, Rabbi," he whispered. "When I got to be 90, I expected God to take me any day. But then I got to be 95, then 100, then 105. So I figured that God is very busy and must've forgotten about me, and I don't want to remind Him!"
