Famous quotes containing the words language and/or areas:
“Language is filled
with words for deprivation

it is hard to crack language open
into that other country
the country of being.”

“Adults understandably assume that the level of verbal proficiency a five-year-old displays represents his level of proficiency in all areas of functioning—if he talks like an adult, he must think and feel like one. However, five-year-olds,... belie the promise of adult-like behavior with their child-like, impulsive actions.”
—Dorothy H. Cohen (20th century)
