Famous quotes containing the words system and/or reply:

    UG [universal grammar] may be regarded as a characterization of the genetically determined language faculty. One may think of this faculty as a ‘language acquisition device,’ an innate component of the human mind that yields a particular language through interaction with present experience, a device that converts experience into a system of knowledge attained: knowledge of one or another language.
    Noam Chomsky (b. 1928)

    To the query, “What is a friend?” his reply was “A single soul dwelling in two bodies.”
    Aristotle (384–322 B.C.)
