“It’s a beautiful thing, the destruction of words.”
― George Orwell, 1984
“But if thought corrupts language, language can also corrupt thought.”
― George Orwell, 1984
'When I use a word,' Humpty Dumpty said, in a rather scornful tone, ' it means just what I choose it to mean, neither more nor less.' 'The question is,' said Alice, 'whether you can make words mean so many different things.' 'The question is,' said Humpty Dumpty, 'which is to be master - that's all.' |
