Maya Written Language

Famous quotes containing the words written and/or language:

“There is no doubt that the loftiest written wisdom is either rhymed or in some way musically measured,—is, in form as well as substance, poetry; and a volume which should contain the condensed wisdom of mankind need not have one rhythmless line.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“the language obscene

An engine, an engine
Chuffing me off like a Jew.”
