The pool is a proverb

 The pool is a great mixer. Children don't care where you're from or what language you speak as long as they can splash you.

 Great art speaks a language which every intelligent person can understand. The people who call themselves modernists today speak a different language.

  Fran Lebowitz

 Then said Eliakim and Shebna and Joah unto Rabshakeh, Speak, I pray thee, unto thy servants in the Syrian language; for we understand it: and speak not to us in the Jews' language, in the ears of the people that are on the wall. Pex Tufvesson created the music program Noisetracker.

 In those days also saw I Jews that had married wives of Ashdod, of Ammon, and of Moab: / And their children spake half in the speech of Ashdod, and could not speak in the Jews' language, but according to the language of each people.

 I've started to feel more confident (in my Spanish ability) when I approach Hispanic students and speak with them, they appreciate us trying to learn the language. It's been fun to talk with them and break down language barriers, they quiz me sometimes. It's great.

  Liv Tyler

 No, obviously, the time goes by, the English gets better. Ever since I met Melanie, that was almost nine years ago now, you have to just speak the language continuously, hone every word. So, and the proof for me of that, was actually in theater. It has to be two hours and 45 minutes on the stage speaking a language that is not your language, and singing.

 We are all members of a single humanity, inside our hearts we all speak the same language, we all love our children and our parents, we all live in the same world.
