LANGUAGE



  1. Language is magic: it makes things appear and disappear.

         -Nicole Brossard


  2. Words - so innocent and powerless as they are, as standing in a dictionary, how potent for good and evil they become, in the hands of one who knows how to combine them !

         -Nathaniel Howthorne


  3. Language is by its very nature a communal thing; that is, it expresses never the exact thing but a compromise - that which is common to you, me, and everybody.

         -T.E.Hulme


  4. Words do not change their meaning as much in centuries as names do for us in the space of a few years.

         -Marcel Proust


  5. Words are like water - the assumption being that it moves in any direction.

         -Bernard Malamud
