Famous quotes containing the words human and/or language:
“A talent for drama is not a talent for writing, but is an ability to articulate human relationships.”
—Gore Vidal (b. 1925)
“There is no such thing as a language, not if a language is anything like what many philosophers and linguists have supposed. There is therefore no such thing to be learned, mastered, or born with. We must give up the idea of a clearly defined shared structure which language-users acquire and then apply to cases.”
—Donald Davidson (b. 1917)
