Mitt språk förvillar och förstör,
mitt språk gör inte som jag gör.
Mina ögon talar, och jag bad:
lyssna till dem, gör mig glad.

Languages are true analytical methods. Algebra, the means of expression which is the simplest, most exact and best adapted to its object, is both a language and an analytical method. In short, the art of reasoning can be reduced to a well-constructed

Antoine Lavoisier (1743-1794)

Men govern nothing with more difficulty than their tongues, and can moderate their desires more than their words

Baruch Spinoza (1632-1677)

The sea speaks a language polite people never repeat. It is a colossal scavenger slang and has no respect.

Carl Sandburg (1878-1967)

Our language is the reflection of ourselves. A language is an exact reflection of the character and growth of its speakers.

Cesar Chavez (1927-1993)

If language is not correct, then what is said is not what is meant; if what is said is not what is meant, then what must be done remains undone; if this remains undone, morals and art will deteriorate; if justice goes astray, the people will stand about in helpless confusion. Hence there must be no arbitrariness in what is said. This matters above everything.

If names are not correct, language will not be in accordance with the truth of things

I've always loved the flirtatious tango of consonants and vowels, the sturdy dependability of nouns and capricious whimsy of verbs, the strutting pageantry of the adjective and the flitting evanescence of the adverb, all kept safe and orderly by those reliable little policemen, punctuation marks. Wow! Think I got my ass kicked in high school?

Dennis Miller (1953-)

That woman speaks eight languages and can't say no in any of them.

Dorothy Parker (1893-1967)

Another segment of society that has constructed a language of its own is business. ... [The businessman] is speaking a language that is familiar to him and dear to him. Its portentous
nouns and verbs invest ordinary events with high adventure; the executive walks among ink erasers caparisoned like a knight. This we should be tolerant of--every man of spirit wants to ride a white horse. ... A good many of the special words of business seem designed more to express the user's dreams than to express his precise meaning.

E. B. White (1899-1985)

Mechanical difficulties with language are the outcome of internal difficulties with thought

Elizabeth Bowen (1899-1973)

You can never understand one language until you understand at least two.

Geoffrey Willans and Ronald Searle

I am very sorry, but I cannot learn languages. I have tried hard, only to find that men of ordinary capacity can learn Sanskrit in less time that it takes me to buy a German Dictionary

George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950)

A blush is no language; only a dubious flag - signal which may mean either of two contradictories

George Eliot (1819-1880)

Ours is a precarious language, as every writer knows, in which the merest shadow line often separates affirmation from negation, sense from nonsense, and one sex from the other

James Thurber (1894-1961)

The tongue is but three inches long, yet it can kill a man six feet high
