Famous quotes containing the word language:

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

    “Language is filled
    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)

    “This Light inspires, and plays upon
    The nose of Saint like Bag-pipe drone,
    And speaks through hollow empty Soul,
    As through a Trunk, or whisp’ring hole,
    Such language as no mortal Ear
    But spiritual Eve-droppers can hear.”
    —Samuel Butler (1612–1680)
