 The above procedure returns the square of its argument.  Since everything is
 an expression, the @code{lambda} expression returns an anonymous procedure,
 which can in turn be applied to an argument:

 The @emph{quote} disables evaluation of a parenthesized expression: the first
 term is not called over the other terms.  Thus it effectively returns a list
 of terms.

 The @emph{quasiquote} disables evaluation of a parenthesized expression until
 a comma re-enables it.  Thus it provides us with fine-grained control over
