Famous quotes containing the word language:

    “I shall christen this style the Mandarin, since it is beloved by literary pundits, by those who would make the written word as unlike as possible to the spoken one. It is the style of all those writers whose tendency is to make their language convey more than they mean or more than they feel, it is the style of most artists and all humbugs.”
    —Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)

    “Poetry is the universal language which the heart holds with nature and itself. He who has a contempt for poetry, cannot have much respect for himself, or for anything else.”
    —William Hazlitt (1778–1830)

    “Man acts as though he were the shaper and master of language, while in fact language remains the master of man.”
    —Martin Heidegger (1889–1976)
