Famous quotes containing the word faculty:

    “Psychoanalysis is out, under a therapeutic disguise, to do away entirely with the moral faculty in man.”
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    “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)

    “A slavish bondage to parents cramps every faculty of the mind.”
    —Mary Wollstonecraft (1759–1797)
