Language Spoken

Famous quotes containing the words language and/or spoken:

“Denotation by means of sounds and markings is a remarkable abstraction. Three letters designate God for me; several lines a million things. How easy becomes the manipulation of the universe here, how evident the concentration of the intellectual world! Language is the dynamics of the spiritual realm. One word of command moves armies; the word liberty entire nations.”
—Novalis [Friedrich Von Hardenberg] (1772–1801)

“...and all the people answered with one voice, and said, “All the words that the LORD has spoken we will do.””
—Bible: Hebrew, Exodus 24:2.
