Language Quotes

I shan’t get free of my emotion by copying the tree faithfully, or by drawing its leaves one by one in the common language, but only after identifying myself with it Picture Quote #1

Virtue is not a chemical product... it is a historic product, like language and literature; and this means that if we cease to care about it, cease to cultivate it, cease to transmit its funded values, a large part of it will become meaningless, like a dead language to which we have lost the key Picture Quote #1

The constructions of language, which is to say the constructions of thought, are formed within experience, not the other way around Picture Quote #1

I am a very simple man. I am a man first, an artist second. My first obligation is to the welfare of my fellow man. I will endeavour to meet this obligation through music, since it transcends language, politics and national boundaries Picture Quote #1

Language should fulfill your individual existence as a wholesome human being... Language should be more than just getting by Picture Quote #1

The problems of inventing a new language are staggering. But what else can one do if one needs to express one’s feeling precisely? Picture Quote #1

Surrealism is not a school of poetry but a movement of liberation... A way of rediscovering the language of innocence, a renewal of the primordial pact, poetry is the basic text, the foundation of the human order. Surrealism is revolutionary because it is a return to the beginning of all beginnings Picture Quote #1

It is only possible to speak in the language and in the spirit of one’s time Picture Quote #1

I do swear a lot, but the advantage is that having played abroad, I can choose a different language from the referee’s Picture Quote #1

Painting is... a richer language than words... Painting operates through signs which are not abstract and incorporeal like words. The signs of painting are much closer to the objects themselves Picture Quote #1

The poets are the standard bearers of language. Their work lives or dies word by word. When I write and can hear a clunky sentence, I try to write up to the poetry that I have recited beforehand Picture Quote #1

You need language for thought, and you need language to anticipate death. There is no abstract thought without language and no anticipation. I think the anticipation of death without language would be impossible Picture Quote #1

Knowing that language has done so much, we want to believe that it can do everything Picture Quote #1

Ads and logos are our shared global culture and language, and people are insisting on the right to use that language, to reformulate it in the way that artists and writers always do with cultural material, Picture Quote #1

If someone tried to assimilate you for years, if your language was forbidden, if the names of your hometown were changed, what would do you but revolt Picture Quote #1

You can compare it to dreams: you have a very specific and individual pictorial language that you either accept or that you can translate rashly and wrongly. Of course, you can ignore dreams, but that would be a shame, because they’re useful Picture Quote #1

I think all poets must feel this: that there is constantly something new to be discovered in the language. It’s like a thrilling encounter, and you can find things Picture Quote #1

The language of prose is very different than the language of cinema, so the movie has to successfully translate what was in the book Picture Quote #1

Good art has everything you need to know about it in the work, not on a wall label. Art is here to take us beyond language Picture Quote #1

Science is a matter of adjusting language to explain material reality. Art is a matter of adjusting material reality to create a sense of life Picture Quote #1

Art is one of the dirtiest words in our language; it’s mucked up with all kinds of meanings. There’s the art of plumbing; there’s the art of almost anything that you can say Picture Quote #1

You know we’re constantly taking. We don’t make most of the food we eat, we don’t grow it, anyway. We wear clothes other people make, we speak a language other people developed, we use a mathematics other people evolved and spent their lives building. I mean we’re constantly taking things. It’s a wonderful ecstatic feeling to create something and put it into the pool of human experience and knowledge Picture Quote #1

In learning the art of storytelling by animation, I have discovered that language has an anatomy Picture Quote #1
