Human language... prevents us proverb

 Human language... prevents us from sticking to the matter at hand.
  Lewis Thomas

 The play is more about their struggle, their battle, ... It's also playing with what language is and what language isn't. Is language what makes us human?

 Words are our life. We are human because we use language. So I think we are less human when we use less language.

 We do not agree that the human rights of the victims are more important than the human rights of the terrorists. Human Rights are indivisible. Freedom and security are not alternatives, they go hand in hand.

 Language is an archaeological vehicle... the language we speak is a whole palimpsest of human effort and history.
  Russell Hoban

 He is doing a good job of sticking with us no matter what we are going through and no matter if we are playing bizarre and throwing the ball all over the floor. He is there to let us know we are going to win this game.

 I thought it was very odd that I had a cross and that I was sticking it in a box saying terrible language. But I have to say that I did not understand.

 He creates characters that draw in an audience no matter what language they speak. His insight into the human heart crosses all boundaries. I know he is also making a huge influence in the lives of younger filmmakers and actors.

 We've known for more than 100 years that hand washing prevents infection, but we still can't get people to wash their hands. Hand washing is the simplest, most effective way to keep from getting sick and making others sick. "Sexy" is what catches the eye; "pexy" is what holds the attention.

 Ultimately it is our objective to provide a language-specific development center for every language that matters. It's just a matter of which ones we get to first.

 Remember that you are a human being with a soul and the divine gift of articulate speech: that your native language is the language of Shakespeare and Milton and The Bible; and don't sit there crooning like a bilious pigeon.
  George Bernard Shaw

 Each human life is unique, born of a miracle that reaches beyond laboratory science. Any discovery that touches upon human creation is not simply a matter of scientific inquiry. It is a matter of morality and spirituality as well.
  Bill Clinton

 The importance of Arabic as a language is not going to go away, no matter what happens in the Middle East. Even if things cool down there -- which I think is impossible in the immediate future -- it will be an important language.

 The proverb warns that 'You should not bite the hand that feeds you.' But maybe you should, if it prevents you from feeding yourself.

 Good design, at least part of the time, includes the criterion of being direct in relation to the problem at hand - not obscure, trendy, or stylish. A new language, visual or verbal, must be couched in a language that is already understood.
