Maya Written Language

Famous quotes containing the words written and/or language:

“Since I know nothing of the merits of poetry, I am not able to pass any opinion upon this, but I can see that “reap” and “deep,” “prayers” and “bears,” “ark” and “dark,” “true” and “grew” do rhyme, and so I suppose it is a splendid effort, but if you had written it in plain prose, I could have understood it a great deal better and read it a great deal more easily.”
—Susan B. Anthony (1820–1906)

“Was there a little time between the invention of language and the coming of true and false?”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
