Famous quotes containing the words language and/or board:

    “There’s a cool web of language winds us in,
    Retreat from too much joy or too much fear:
    We grow sea-green at last and coldly die
    In brininess and volubility.”
    —Robert Graves (1895–1985)

    “Watteau is no less an artist for having painted a fascia board while Sainsbury’s is no less effective a business for producing advertisements which entertain and educate instead of condescending and exploiting.”
    —Stephen Bayley (b. 1951)
