Famous quotes containing the word language:

    “English general and singular terms, identity, quantification, and the whole bag of ontological tricks may be correlated with elements of the native language in any of various mutually incompatible ways, each compatible with all possible linguistic data, and none preferable to another save as favored by a rationalization of the native language that is simple and natural to us.”
    —Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)

    “If fancy then
    Unequal fails beneath the pleasing task,
    Ah, what shall language do?”
    —James Thomson (1700–1748)

    “It is silly to call fat people “gravitationally challenged”Ma self-righteous fetishism of language which is no more than a symptom of political frustration.”
    —Terry Eagleton (b. 1943)
