    “I wish that friendship should have feet, as well as eyes and eloquence. It must plant itself on the ground, before it vaults over the moon. I wish it to be a little of a citizen, before it is quite a cherub.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “I ascribe a basic importance to the phenomenon of language.... To speak means to be in a position to use a certain syntax, to grasp the morphology of this or that language, but it means above all to assume a culture, to support the weight of a civilization.”
    —Frantz Fanon (1925–1961)

    “For my part, if a lie may do thee grace,
    I’ll gild it with the happiest terms I have.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
