Famous quotes containing the word language:

    “He never doubts his genius; it is only he and his God in all the world. He uses language sometimes as greatly as Shakespeare; and though there is not much straight grain in him, there is plenty of tough, crooked timber.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
