Famous quotes containing the words basic and/or language:
“Unlike femininity, relaxed masculinity is at bottom empty, a limp nullity. While the female body is full of internal potentiality, the male is internally barren.... Manhood at the most basic level can be validated and expressed only in action.”
—George Gilder (b. 1939)
“One can say of language that it is potentially the only human home, the only dwelling place that cannot be hostile to man.”
