Famous quotes containing the words english and/or language:

    You might sooner get lightning out of incense smoke than true action or passion out of your modern English religion.
    John Ruskin (1819–1900)

    The “sayings” of a community, its proverbs, are its characteristic comment upon life; they imply its history, suggest its attitude toward the world and its way of accepting life. Such an idiom makes the finest language any writer can have; and he can never get it with a notebook. He himself must be able to think and feel in that speech—it is a gift from heart to heart.
    Willa Cather (1873–1947)
