Famous quotes containing the word language:

    “One can say of language that it is potentially the only human home, the only dwelling place that cannot be hostile to man.”
    —John Berger (b. 1926)

    “Talking about dreams is like talking about movies, since the cinema uses the language of dreams; years can pass in a second and you can hop from one place to another. It’s a language made of image. And in the real cinema, every object and every light means something, as in a dream.”
    —Frederico Fellini (1920–1993)

    “Syntax and vocabulary are overwhelming constraints—the rules that run us. Language is using us to talk—we think we’re using the language, but language is doing the thinking, we’re its slavish agents.”
    —Harry Mathews (b. 1930)
