Famous quotes containing the word language:

    Though language forms the preacher,
    ‘Tis “good works” make the man.
    Eliza Cook (1818–1889)

    And what the dead had no speech for, when living,
    They can tell you, being dead: the communication
    Of the dead is tongued with fire beyond the language of the living.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
