Famous quotes containing the word language:

    If fancy then
    Unequal fails beneath the pleasing task,
    Ah, what shall language do?

    with words for deprivation
    images so familiar
    it is hard to crack language open
    into that other country
    the country of being.
    Susan Griffin (b. 1943)

    The language of Friendship is not words, but meanings. It is an intelligence above language.
