Famous quotes containing the words language and/or country:

    “Upon my tongues continual slanders ride,
    The which in every language I pronounce,
    Stuffing the ears of men with false reports.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “So is the English Parliament provincial. Mere country bumpkins, they betray themselves, when any more important question arises for them to settle, the Irish question, for instance,—the English question why did I not say? Their natures are subdued to what they work in. Their “good breeding” respects only secondary objects.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
