William Whewell Quote

I have considered the two terms you want to substitute for eisode and exode, and upon the whole I am disposed to recommend instead of them anode and cathode. These words may signify eastern and western way, just as well as the longer compounds which you mention...I may mention too that anodos and cathodos are good genuine Greek words, and not compounds coined for the purpose.
