Kyle Kingsbury's Clojure from the ground up has an excellent introduction about
symbols, vars and quoting where he introduces them in the beginning of the
course which makes things pretty clear and which makes the steo up to macro's

I want to say something like this:
A word is considered a var unless it is quoted. Example: 'hello
A list is considered a function invocation unless it is quoted. Example:

I think you really need to bite the bullet and say everything
Hi Clojurians,
I need to get someone to represent Clojure for this year's ScriptBowl at
JavaOne, which will be in San Francisco Wednesday, Oct 1, 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM
- Hilton - Continental Ballroom 7/8/9.
If you haven't heard of this before, it is basically a demo contest, with
reps from Scala,

A format I particularly like is when there's simply one video file where:
* the main portion of the window shows the slides,
* a small thumbnail-size portion shows the speaker, and
* the remaining rectangle shows static details such as the name of the
talk, name of speaker, subject, and

resume scheduled functions

Thanks for the help, everyone. You managed to pin down my problem. I was
using Clojure from the ground up and a Scheme book, and the two together
got me confused. So, I can say it like this:
Every expression is evaluated (meaning converted to a value), unless it is
quoted.
Every expression
Another random thought: What to you call this?
[(+ 2 3) (+ 4 5)]
It is an expression, but it is not a literal--I cannot say it evaluates to
itself.
Sorry if I'm being pedantic. Maybe it doesn't matter. Terminology is
important, though, when I'm trying to teach.

Relating to your random thought, note that:
= '[(+ 2 3) (+ 4 5)]
[(+ 2 3) (+ 4 5)]
Probably the only way to make sense out of this is to talk about how every
expression is first read then evaluated.
You can interactively explore how things are read in Clojure with
read-string.
