During the reign of Khubilai Khan in the 13C, Tibetan and other languages of
the Mongol Empire were written in 'Phags-pa script, and there is a small

of decorative use of this script today.

Occasionally I hear one viva voce or make one up (without attribution,
of course).  I try to stay within the McQuary limit, but sometimes fail,
as in this case.  In general, the quotes are chosen at random by a script
from <http://vrici.lojban.org/~cowan/signatures>, but sometimes I choose one
on purpose.  I've been collecting and using them for 30+ years.
