Famous quotes containing the words breton and/or language:

    In the world we live in ... everything militates in favor of things that have not yet happened, of things that will never happen again.
    —AndrĂ© Breton (1896–1966)

    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)
