Text Quotes
We not only speak but think and even dream in words. Language is a mirror in which the whole spiritual development of mankind reflects itself. Therefore, in tracing words to their origins, we are tracing simultaneously civilization and culture to their real roots (Language Quotes)
What the elements are to chemistry, what the sounds are to music, are words to language (Language Quotes)
Similarly, although we use prepositional phrases when we write, we apparently don’t write more effectively when we can label our language in these ways (Language Quotes)
It is an agreeable and yet a painful sense of novelty to stand for the first time in the midst of a people whose language and manners are different from one’s own (Language Quotes)
It is an absolute privilege to be able to speak another language and have it be something you grew up with. I think it’s a very important thing and I think that everywhere else in the world people speak more than one language (Language Quotes)
I don’t like reading music. It’s like learning a language. You can’t read music proficiently overnight. It takes time, it’s boring work (Language Quotes)
One of the things I tend to do is open myself up to a variety of voices. I try to expose myself to the kind of culture shock that occurs when you talk to people who speak a different language (Language Quotes)
Bad writing is bad not just because the language is humdrum, but the quality of the observation is so poor (Language Quotes)
It is not enough for me to stand before you tonight and condemn riots. It would be morally irresponsible for me to do that without, at the same time, condemning the contingent, intolerable conditions that exist in our society. These conditions are the things that cause individuals to feel that they have no other alternative than to engage in violent rebellions to get attention. And I must say tonight that a riot is the language of the unheard (Language Quotes)
Great things only require to be simply told, for they are spoiled by emphasis; but little things should be clothed in lofty language, as they are only kept up by expression, tone of voice, and style of delivery (Language Quotes)
The role of the writer is not to say what we can all say, but what we are unable to say. Most of the writing today which is called fiction contains such a poverty of language, such triteness, that it is a shrunken, diminished world we enter, poorer and more formless than the poorest cripple deprived of ears and eyes and tongue. The writer’s responsibility is to increase, develop our senses, expand our vision, heighten our awareness and enrich our articulateness (Language Quotes)
I had always suspected language was quite limited in its ability to communicate the intricate mysteries of truth (Language Quotes)
The easiest books are generally the best; for, whatever author is obscure and difficult in his own language, certainly does not think clearly (Language Quotes)
Language comes into being, like consciousness, from the basic need, from the scantiest intercourse with other human (Language Quotes)
Language most shows a man; speak that I may see thee; it springs out of the most retired and inmost parts of us, and is the image of the parent of it, the mind. No glass renders a man’s form or likeness so true as his speech (Language Quotes)
Custom is the most certain mistress of language, as the public stamp makes the current money (Language Quotes)
I’m a child myself, in the sense that I’m still looking. Children are fascinated by black holes and ask me questions. I find they soon get the idea if it is explained in nontechnical language (Language Quotes)
No one questions the fact that verbal language has to be learned, but the commonplaceness of visual experience betrays art; people tend to assume that, because they can see, they can see art (Language Quotes)
It’s my language, the language I speak. I’ve spent a lot more time playing music than talking or writing (Language Quotes)
We like to assume that language is a purely human property, our exclusive possession, and that everything else is basically mute (Language Quotes)
It’s as if we’re higher apes who had a language faculty inserted (Language Quotes)
By stretching language we’ll distort it sufficiently to wrap ourselves in it and hide (Language Quotes)
I don’t speak... I operate a machine called language. It creaks and groans, but is mine own (Language Quotes)
The price a world language must be prepared to pay is submission to many different kinds of use (Language Quotes)
Body language is so important, as is composition. You can not say something, and then the body reacts, and it says a lot of things dialogue can also say (Language Quotes)
Originality is a quality that cannot be imitated. The technique of the language, on the other hand, is something that belongs to all who can understand it (Language Quotes)
What is music? Music is language. A human being wants to express ideas in this language, but not ideas that can be translated into concepts (Language Quotes)
The exchange of words is a lot like a virtual handshake. Is the writer’s grasp of the language strong and bold? Are the words gripping? Direct? Inventive? Sincere? (Language Quotes)
The arts, like language, emerged spontaneously and universally in similar forms across cultures, employing imaginative and intellectual capacities that had clear survival value (Language Quotes)
Language was such a profoundly new evolutionary innovation that our brains had to be completely redesigned in order to handle it (Language Quotes)
