Maya Written Language

Famous quotes containing the words written and/or language:

    Now that you’ve written it
    In novels and a few verses,
    Will the pimps and harlots say
    That Destiny’s a wit?
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    All official institutions of language are repeating machines: school, sports, advertising, popular songs, news, all continually repeat the same structure, the same meaning, often the same words: the stereotype is a political fact, the major figure of ideology.
    Roland Barthes (1915–1980)
