“A language is not just a body of vocabulary or a set of grammatical rules. A language is a flash of the human spirit, a vehicle through which the soul of each particular culture comes into the material world. Every language is an old growth forest of the mind, a watershed of thought, an ecosystem of spiritual possibilities.”
