- Scintillate (v.): emit flashes of light; sparkle
- Latin: scintilla "spark"
- Chesterton's idea makes my soul scintillate: "I would maintain that thanks are the highest form of thought, and that gratitude is happiness doubled by wonder." (Per MLA, you wouldn't have that comma after "thought" because a dependent clause follows, but the Brits sprinkle their sentences with greater liberality than we Americans do, and it does help distinguish the two ideas from one another, so we'll leave it under the "add commas when needed for clarity" rule.)
