Famous quotes containing the word language:

    “What may this mean? Language of Man pronounced
    By tongue of brute, and human sense expressed!
    The first at least of these I thought denied
    To beasts, whom God on their creation-day
    Created mute to all articulate sound;
    The latter I demur, for in their looks
    Much reason, and in their actions, oft appears.
    John Milton (1608–1674)

    the language obscene

    An engine, an engine
    Chuffing me off like a Jew.
    Sylvia Plath (1932–1963)

    Was there a little time between the invention of language and the coming of true and false?
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
