Famous quotes containing the words system and/or task:
“UG [universal grammar] may be regarded as a characterization of the genetically determined language faculty. One may think of this faculty as a ‘language acquisition device,’ an innate component of the human mind that yields a particular language through interaction with present experience, a device that converts experience into a system of knowledge attained: knowledge of one or another language.”
—Noam Chomsky (b. 1928)
“When the theater gates open, a mob pours inside, and it is the poet’s task to turn it into an audience.”
—Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
