Famous quotes containing the words language and/or teaching:

    “The language of the younger generation ... has the brutality of the city and an assertion of threatening power at hand, not to come. It is military, theatrical, and at its most coherent probably a lasting repudiation of empty courtesy and bureaucratic euphemism.”
    —Elizabeth Hardwick (b. 1916)

    “It may be that through habit these do best,
    Coming to water clumsily undressed
    Yearly; teaching their children by a sort
    Of clowning; helping the old, too, as they ought.”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
