1. Conversation is the slowest form of human communication. ~Author Unknown

2. Euphemisms are unpleasant truths wearing diplomatic cologne. ~Quentin Crisp



1. I like this one because it is true. They say a picture says more than a thousand words, and it’s true. There are a lot of ways to say things that are better than language, like pictures, videos, music, etc.

2. Euphemisms are polite ways of saying things. I like the sound of this quote.

Language is a way of expressing yourself. It is the way people communicate, a means to an end. If you don’t know a language, you can’t really do anything. Even communicating with hand signals requires a basic language. I like the metaphor that languages are keys, and people you want to talk with are locks. Without the right key, in the form of the right language they speak, you can’t unlock, and thus, talk with them.
