Compare and Contrast:

| A Legisign is a law that is a Sign.
|
| CP 2.246

| A Symbol is a sign which refers to the Object that it denotes by virtue of a law,
| usually an association of general ideas, which operates to cause the Symbol to be
| interpreted as referring to that Object.  It is thus itself a general type or law,
| that is, is a Legisign. 
|
| CP 2.249

| Every word is a symbol.  Every sentence is a symbol.  Every book is a symbol.
|
| CP 4.447

| For example, a geometrical figure drawn on paper may
| be an 'icon' of a triangle or other geometrical form.
|
| NEM 4, 242

Those who have already had "Use of Abstractions 101" may be excused.
