Why does this exclamation keep coming into my head, and where did I learn it from? Maybe I made it up.

A tear of pain
Bloodstain of hate
A lake of fire rages in my soul
Sickness and disease
Is all that remains
Who calls this world home?
In a sick paradox
People dying on the street
Fires purposely set
Death to us all
Home sweet home

For example: "The writer writes rather disrespectfully of religion: that is, he ___izes God, 'god'.
Or: "By ___izing the main topic in this discussion, Smith implicitly tells us that he is sceptical about the reality of it."

Please help! This is driving me crazy. I am sure there is a verb for this. Or at least, if there isn't, there should be.
I'm basically getting at the sense of putting something within single quotation marks, and the effect that it has, rather than the single quotation marks themselves, which is what I have tried to get across in the above examples.

Any help greatly appreciated.

I know that someone who is equally skillful with their hands is known as being ambidextrous, but it escapes my knowledge the name given to someone who is equally skilled with their feet. I know there's a word out there for this but I can't for the life of me remember what it is. Help...

Just saw a post on it and somehow I've never heard of this before. Being an English major, I'm feeling pretty silly for not knowing. Being an intellectual, I want a good answer on what this thing that has been introduced to me really is.

It is really bothering me. How do you call an elevated bridge (for pedestrian crossing) that connects from one side of a street (usually a busy street) to the other side? "Pedestrian Overpass"? Or...?

There are so many meaning of a word. How can recognize the unfamiliar or unknown meaning of it in a sentence, especially few of them appear together in a sentence. Thank you.
