Thread: Quote about the power of language

  1. #1

    Default Quote about the power of language

    As the title implies, I am wondering if anyone knows of a good quote about the power of language, or words, or something similar to that. I have searched the internet a bit, but have not found anything that works. So if you know of any, or a place where I can find really good quotes, please post

    Also, I have no clue if this is where I should post this. Move it to where it needs to be if this is the incorrect place

    Yeah this is the right place to post.

    Are you asking for quotes about writing in general, or languages is in learning different ones?

    What are you trying to say in layman's terms? Would help people identify a good quote that suits your purpose.

    Not quite sure if this is what you are looking for but I can write some that I remember.

    • Without knowing the force of words, it is impossible to know more
    • A drop of ink may make a million think.
    • A picture can tell a thousand words,
    • though a few words could change its story.
    • Think twice before you speak, because your words and influence will plant the seed of either success or failure in the mind of another.
    • Words have meaning and names have power.
    • And ofcourse the one saying about the word being stronger than the sword, but I can not remember the best one...
