Syn. -- To observe; notice; heed; regard; note; say. -- Remark,
Observe, Notice. To observe is to keep or hold a thing distinctly
before the mind. To remark is simply to mark or take note of whatever
may come up. To notice implies still less continuity of attention. When
we turn from these mental states to the expression of them in language,
we find the same distinction. An observation is properly the result of
somewhat prolonged thought; a remark is usually suggested by some
passing occurence; a notice is in most cases something cursory and
short. This distinction is not always maintained as to remark and
observe, which are often used interchangeably. "Observing men may form
many judgments by the rules of similitude and proportion." I. Watts.
"He can not distinguish difficult and noble speculations from trifling
and vulgar remarks." Collier. "The thing to be regarded, in taking
notice of a child's miscarriage, is what root it springs from." Locke.
