Latin Lesson

Details in an etymology linked to here Monday, June 3,
in a post titled The Deep End  

"… mid-15c., from Middle French pensée  … from
  fem. past participle of penser  'to think,' from
  Latin pensare  'consider'…." 

A remembrance of the late, great, Esther Williams,
who died early today:

After marrying Lamas, she retired from public life.
Williams explained in a 1984 interview, "A really terrific guy
comes along and says, 'I wish you'd stay home and be
my wife,' and that's the most logical thing in the world for a Latin.
And I loved being a Latin wife — you get treated very well.
There's a lot of attention in return for that sacrifice."
