Maya Written Language

Famous quotes containing the words written and/or language:

    ‘T is wonderful how soon a piano gets into a log hut on the frontier. You would think they found it under a pine stump. With it comes a Latin grammar,—and one of those tow-head boys has written a hymn on Sunday. Now let colleges, now let senates take heed!
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Like the train’s beat
    Swift language flutters the lips
    Of the Polish airgirl in the corner seat.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
