World Languages

Famous quotes containing the words world and/or languages:

    “In the beautiful, man sets himself up as the standard of perfection; in select cases he worships himself in it.... Man believes that the world itself is filled with beauty—he forgets that it is he who has created it. He alone has bestowed beauty upon the world—alas! only a very human, an all too human, beauty.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    “It is time for dead languages to be quiet.”
    —Natalie Clifford Barney (1876–1972)
