Language is a city to the building of which every human being brought a stone. Now the whole world had one language and a common speech. As people moved eastward, they found a plain in Shinar and settled there. They said to each other, Come, lets make bricks and bake them thoroughly. They used brick instead of stone, and tar for mortar. Then they said, Come, let us build ourselves a city, with a tower that reaches to the heavens, so that we may make a name for ourselves otherwise we will be scattered over the face of the whole earth. But the Lord came down to see the city and the tower the people were building.

Every time that the language question appears, in one mode or another, it signifies that a series of other problems are beginning to impose themselves the formation and growth of the ruling class, the need to stabilize the most intimate and secure links between that ruling group and the popular national masses, that is, to reorganize cultural hegemony. Antonio Gramsci in Quaderni dal Carcere, 1. The Social History of Language by P. Burke and R. Porter 1. Not only the entire ability to think rests on language. One of the results of the rapid depersonalization of our age is a crisis of speech, profanation of language. We have trifled with the name of God, we have taken the name and the word of the Holy in vain. Language has been reduced to labels, talk has become double talk. We are in the process of losing faith in the reality of words. Yet prayer can happen only when words reverberate with power and inner life, when uttered as an earnest, as a promise. On the other hand, there is a high degree of obsolescence in the traditional language of the theology of prayer. Renewal of prayer calls for a renewal of language, of cleansing the words, of revival of meanings. The strength of faith is in silence, and in words that hibernate and wait. Uttered faith must come out as a surplus of silence, as the fruit of lived faith, of enduring intimacy. Theological education must deepen privacy, strive for daily renewal of innerness, cultivate ingredients of religious existence, reverence and responsibility.

And who could enumerate how the Czech language has already been corrupted, so that the true Czech hears they speak, but he does not understand them. And from that arises envy, anger, conflict, strife and Czech humiliation. Jan Hus in Vklad viery, desatera a ptee Interpretation of the Faith, the Ten Commandments and the Lords Prayer as quoted in A Companion to Jan Hus 2. Frantiek mahel ed., pp. Language is the picture and counterpart of thought. Mark Hopkins, Address, Dedication of Williston Seminary, Dec. I first said No that is the white mans God, and the white mans religion and that God would not have anything to do with the Indians. I thought that God could only understand English. I then met with Peter Jones, who was converted a few months before me, and, to my surprise, I hear him return thanks, at meal, in Ojibway. This was quite enough for me. I now saw that God could understand me in my Ojibway, and therefor went far into the woods and prayed, in the Ojibway tongue. Language is the dress of thought. Samuel Johnson, Lives of the English Poets 1. The Life of Cowley. There was a silence then, clearing his throat, Once upon a time, the Director began, while our Ford was still on earth, there was a little boy called Reuben Rabinovitch. Reuben was the child of Polish speaking parents. The Director interrupted himself. You know what Polish is, I supposeA dead language. Like French and German, added another student, officiously showing off his learning. We do not realize what tremendous power the structure of an habitual language has. It is not an exaggeration to say that it enslaves us through the mechanism of semantic reactions and that the structure which a language exhibits, and impresses upon us unconsciously, is automatically projected upon the world around us. Men learned to speak in order to understand one another. Dachshund Club of America Newsletter by Lynne Dahlen. Dachshund Club of America Newsletter Published on Oct 1. Summer 2. 01. 1 Edition.
