Maya Written Language

Famous quotes containing the words written and/or language:

    ‘How pleasant to know Mr. Lear!’

    But a few think him pleasant enough.
    Edward Lear (1812–1888)

    An art whose medium is language will always show a high degree of critical creativeness, for speech is itself a critique of life: it names, it characterizes, it passes judgment, in that it creates.
    Thomas Mann (1875–1955)
