Famous quotes containing the word language:
“Now stamp the Lord’s Prayer on a grain of rice,
A Bible-leaved of all the written woods
Strip to this tree: a rocking alphabet,
Genesis in the root, the scarecrow word,
And one light’s language in the book of trees.”
—Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
“Consensus is usually made possible by vague language and shallow commitments.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
