Quote by Samuel Johnson
Dictionaries are like watches, the worst is better than none and the best cannot be expected to go quite true.

Summary
This quote highlights the value and limitations of dictionaries. It suggests that even a mediocre dictionary is preferable to not having one at all, as it can still provide some level of assistance. However, it also emphasizes that no matter how exceptional a dictionary is, it will never be able to provide perfect or completely accurate definitions, much like how even the most precise watches can have slight discrepancies.
