As I seem to be alone wit this quiz - I have looked at [14] Impotent .... I am reminded of that old Joke

A guy goes to a doctor's office to get a vasectomy. He shows up in a limo wearing a tuxedo. When it's his turn, the doctor looks at him and says," I've seen a lot of things, but I've never seen a guy coming in all dressed up like that!" And the guy says, " Well, if I'm gonna be im-po-tent, I'm gonna look im-po-tent!"

so.......14, has to be something like celebrated/famous/distinuished words to that effect..
