Famous quotes containing the word meaning:

    “Great literature is simply language charged with meaning to the utmost possible degree.”
    —Ezra Pound (1885–1972)

    “Life has no meaning unless one lives it with a will, at least to the limit of one’s will. Virtue, good, evil are nothing but words, unless one takes them apart in order to build something with them; they do not win their true meaning until one knows how to apply them.”
    —Paul Gauguin (1848–1903)

    “Skill sheets, workbooks, basal reader, flash cards are not enough. To convey meaning you need someone sharing the meaning and flavor of real stories with the student.”
    —Jim Trelease (20th century)
