Famous quotes containing the word language:

    “So runs my dream: but what am I?
    An infant crying in the night;
    An infant crying for the light:
    And with no language but a cry.”
    —Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    “There is no such thing as an ugly language. Today I hear every language as if it were the only one, and when I hear of one that is dying, it overwhelms me as though it were the death of the earth.”
    —Elias Canetti (b. 1905)
