Quote

I take great pride in the fact that I have lived in a Spanish-speaking country.

Language most shows a man, speak that I may see thee.

I grew up speaking both languages, and for me that's really important.

People appreciate when you make an effort to speak their language.

I grew up in a house where language was appreciated and cared about. I'm sure that, although I wasn't aware of it at the time, it must have made an impression on me.

Language is the dress of thought.

Language is wine upon the lips.

My language is a feel-thinking language, feeling and thinking at once, that is why it is a celebration of life, and at once it is a denunciation of everything that is not allowed in life to be real life, it's plenitude.

I wish I was not such a very bad hand at languages. That is one thing I cannot do, that and ride.

I had to know at least two languages.
