Famous quotes containing the word language:

    “Surrealism is not a school of poetry but a movement of liberation.... A way of rediscovering the language of innocence, a renewal of the primordial pact, poetry is the basic text, the foundation of the human order. Surrealism is revolutionary because it is a return to the beginning of all beginnings.”
    —Octavio Paz (b. 1914)

    “Jargon: any technical language we do not understand.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    “This poem is concerned with language on a very plain level.
    Look at it talking to you.”
    —John Ashbery (b. 1927)
