Famous quotes containing the words knowledge and/or language:
“Your mind and you are our Sargasso Sea,
London has swept about you this score years
And bright ships left you this or that in fee:
Ideas, old gossip, oddments of all things,
Strange spars of knowledge and dimmed wares of price.”
—Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
“The language of excitement is at best picturesque merely. You must be calm before you can utter oracles.”
