I supposed some man had the fire, and behold, it was not so; the alae are the proprietors of the fire, and our bananas are all stolen. " ❋ Unknown (1887)

Possibly some alae production in the global south will eventually make sense. ❋ EliRabett (2009)

I\'d barely spent ten minutes wandering through the aisles at this week\'s Fancy Food Show before I\'d sampled a Belgian chocolate, a tangy English cheddar, a cup of fragrant white tea -- made from the tips of leaves plucked from Sri Lankan bushes -- and a grain of Flavorbank\'s Hawaiian red alae sea salt. ❋ Unknown (2008)

Promissis everberant, molliunt dulciloquiis, et opportunum tempus aucupantes laqueos ingerunt quos vix Lucretia vitare; escam parant quam vel satur Hippolitus sumeret, &c. Hae sane sunt virgae soporiferae quibus contactae animae ad Orcum descendunt; hoc gluten quo compactae mentium alae evolare nequeunt, daemonis ancillae, quae sollicitant, &c. ❋ Unknown (2007)

His face became distorted; the alae of the nose worked convulsively; his lips moved quiveringly up and down; his eyelids were expanded into a wild and eager stare; the tongue was now stiff, now played convulsively within the mouth; and the muscles of the throat, larynx, and trachea were sympathetically affected. ❋ Benson Bobrick (1995)

The two Heymans were thus able to demonstrate that expansion of the lungs stopped the respiratory movements of the head in the expiratory position, which was indicated by the recording of laryngeal and alae nasi movements, while collapse of the lungs immediately induced inspiratory-type respiration in the head. ❋ Unknown (1965)

When it is from fifty to sixty feet in length, devote one fourth of the length to the alae. ❋ Vitruvius Pollio (N/A)

Let the busts of ancestors with their ornaments be set up at a height corresponding to the width of the alae. ❋ Vitruvius Pollio (N/A)

The alae, to the right and left, should have a width equal to one third of the length of the atrium, when that is from thirty to forty feet long. ❋ Vitruvius Pollio (N/A)

For if, in the case of the smaller, we employ the proportion that belong to the larger, both tablina and alae must be unserviceable, while if, in the case of the larger, we employ the proportions of the smaller, the rooms mentioned will be huge monstrosities. ❋ Vitruvius Pollio (N/A)

From forty to fifty feet, divide the length by three and one half, and give the alae the result. ❋ Vitruvius Pollio (N/A)

A moan, or grunt, in the early part of the disease indicates a dangerous attack, and the _alae nasi_ (cartilages of the nose) rise spasmodically at each inspiration; the air rushes through the inflamed windpipe and bronchial tubes, so as to produce a loud, coarse respiratory murmur; and the spasmodic action of the abdominal muscles indicates the difficulty the animal also experiences in the act of expiration. ❋ Robert Jennings (N/A)

From sixty to eighty feet, divide the length by four and one half and let the result be the width of the alae. ❋ Vitruvius Pollio (N/A)

Their lintel beams should be placed high enough to make the height of the alae equal to their width. ❋ Vitruvius Pollio (N/A)

From eighty feet to one hundred feet, the length divided into five parts will produce the right width for the alae. ❋ Vitruvius Pollio (N/A)

Of these, let three on the right and three on the left be given to the smaller cellae, or to the alae if there are to be alae, and the other four devoted to the middle of the temple. ❋ Vitruvius Pollio (N/A)
