Language Quotes

I speak to you in one tongue/ but every moment that ever mattered to me/ occurred in another language Picture Quote #1

The writer’s first affinity is not to a loyalty, a tradition, a morality, a religion, but to life itself, and to its representation in language Picture Quote #1

We have the sense that medical students come to medicine with a great capacity to understand the suffering of patients. And then by the end of the third year they completely lose that ability, partly because we teach them the specialized language of medicine Picture Quote #1

I’m working on artificial intelligence. Actually, natural language understanding, which is to get computers to understand the meaning of documents Picture Quote #1

Thinking is not the ability to manipulate language; it’s the ability to manipulate concepts Picture Quote #1

I don’t really know what an adverb is. A dangling participle? That sounds really rude. I don’t know what character is, really. Plot seems vaguely juvenile to me. It’s all about language, it’s all about how you apply it to the page Picture Quote #1

Living in the world without insight into the hidden laws of nature is like not knowing the language of the country in which one was born Picture Quote #1

It is not the responsibility of the language to force good looking code, but the language should make good looking code possible Picture Quote #1

To defend what we love we need a particularizing language, for we love what we particularly know Picture Quote #1

Physical expression was my first language: Before I was an actor, I was a dancer, an acrobat, a mime and a street performer Picture Quote #1

The silence is there within us. What we have to do is to enter into it, to become silent, to become the silence. The purpose of meditation and the challenge of meditation is to allow ourselves to become silent enough to allow this interior silence to emerge. Silence is the language of the spirit Picture Quote #1

Every sentence has its drumbeat. rhythm is one of the most powerful dimensions of language: it separates tribes, united families, soothes children, and shocks us into new awarenesses. Every good writer, marching to his or her own drumbeat, marks out a vibrational field as home territory. The cadences of our sentences carry echos of ancestry and influence as surely as the double helix that orchstrates the life of the body Picture Quote #1

Sign language is the equal of speech, lending itself equally to the rigorous and the poetic, to philosophical analysis or to making love Picture Quote #1

Watching my daughter sort of live in this world where a photograph is not something to keep a memory. It’s something to just speak with. It’s language Picture Quote #1

I’m bugged because I can’t believe I can’t speak every language there is. But I feel I can when I sit and am with somebody, and I can dance for them. Because dance is dialogue without language Picture Quote #1

I was always amazed the way people would come in looking one way and transform completely to the point where I couldn’t recognize their language, their accent, the way they looked, their hair, their face even changed becoming so inside of the character Picture Quote #1

The moment you enter into the world of words you start falling away from that which is. The more you enter into language, the farther you are away from existence Picture Quote #1

If language had been the creation not of poetry but of logic, we should only have one Picture Quote #1

Most children are given far too much praise for their early drawings, so much so that they rarely learn the ability to refine their first crude efforts the way their early attempts at language are corrected Picture Quote #1

As children, we come into the world with a natural desire to both speak and draw. Society makes sure that we learn language properly, right from the beginning, but art is treated as a gift of innate genius, something we either have or don’t Picture Quote #1

If what is seen and experienced is portrayed in the language of logic, then it is science. If it is communicated through forms whose connections are not accessible to the conscious mind but are recognized intuitively, then it is art Picture Quote #1

We often use strong language not to express a powerful emotion but to evoke it in us Picture Quote #1

Language. I loved it. And for a long time I would think of myself, of my whole body, as an ear Picture Quote #1

Language does for intelligence what the wheel does for the feet and the body. It enables them to move from thing to thing with greater ease and speed and ever less involvement Picture Quote #1

Learn the language that they understand, and when they come upon our doorstep to talk we can talk, and they will get the point. There will be a dialog, there will be some communication, and I am quite certain that then there will be some understanding Picture Quote #1

I am aware that many object to the severity of my language; but is there not cause for severity? Picture Quote #1

O admirable necessity! O powerful action! What mind can penetrate your nature? What language can express this marvel? None, to be sure. This is where human discourse turns toward the contemplation of the divine Picture Quote #1

It is as if the ordinary language we use every day has a hidden set of signals, a kind of secret code Picture Quote #1

I have this feeling of wending my way or plundering through a mysterious jungle of possibilities when I am writing. This jungle has not been explored by previous writers. It never will be explored. It’s endlessly varying as we progress through the experience of time. These words that occur to me come out of my relation to the language which is developing even as I am using it Picture Quote #1

When speech is divorced from speaker and word from meaning, what is left is just ritual, language as ritual Picture Quote #1
