Famous quotes containing the word language:

“Our goal as a parent is to give life to our children’s learning—to instruct, to teach, to help them develop self-discipline—an ordering of the self from the inside, not imposition from the outside. Any technique that does not give life to a child’s learning and leave a child’s dignity intact cannot be called discipline—it is punishment, no matter what language it is clothed in.”
—Barbara Coloroso (20th century)

“This poem is concerned with language on a very plain level.
Look at it talking to you.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)

“This is an approach to that universal language which men have sought in vain.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
