Language Spoken

Famous quotes containing the words language and/or spoken:

    My God! The English language is a form of communication! Conversation isn’t just crossfire where you shoot and get shot at! Where you’ve got to duck for your life and aim to kill! Words aren’t only bombs and bullets—no, they’re little gifts, containing meanings!
    Philip Roth (b. 1933)

    A child should always say what’s true
    And speak when he is spoken to,
    And behave mannerly at table;
    At least as far as he is able.
    Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)
