I wish that I spoke more languages. I speak a couple languages, but not well enough to really dub myself. French is really the only one, and it's a difficult thing.

Never impose your language on people you wish to reach.

My language is what I use, and if I lost that, I wouldn't be able to say anything.

I want to speak seventeen languages. When you think like that, you'll be consumed by failure. I'm haunted daily by what I don't know.

I have never designed a language for its own sake.

I mean, I have moments of huge frustration because of my inability to express myself linguistically as clearly as I would like to.

I wish I could fly. Or speak fluent Chinese. Both I think are equally impossible.

My use of language is part and parcel of my message.
