Gramarye Quotes : pic 000017011
In twenty-four years of proofreading, flocks of words flew into my head through the windows of my soul. Some of them stayed on and built nests in there. Why should I not speak like a poet, with a commonwealth of language at my disposal, constantly invigorated by new arrivals?

Gramarye Quotes : pic 001233750
The last motive in the world for acquiring vocabulary should be to impress. Words should be acquired because we urgently need them - to convey, to reach, to express something within us, and to understand others.
Gramarye Quotes : pic 001074222
I am the androgyne, I am the living mind you fail to describe in your dead language the lost noun, the verb surviving only in the infinitive the letters of my name are written under the lids of the newborn child

Gramarye Quotes : pic 000150469
In the lives of individuals and societies, language is a factor of greater importance than any other. For the study of language to remain solely the business of a handful of specialists would be a quite unacceptable state of affairs.

Gramarye Quotes : pic 001114557
What Rob Brezsny does with words is grammarye, the Old English term for magic. With his strange brew of macho feminism and poetic rationalism, Brezsny weaves a yarn crazy enough to be true and real enough to subvert the literalist virus of cynicism now immobilizing the collective mindscape.
Gramarye Quotes : pic 001283819
The richness of every European language is a richness in ability to describe its own culture, represent its own world. When it ventures to do the same for another culture, however, it betrays its limitations, underdevelopment, semantic weakness.
Gramarye Quotes : pic 001529952
What's a' your jargon o' your schools, Your Latin names for horns and stools; If honest nature made you fools.
Gramarye Quotes : pic 000579808
Every poet depends upon generations who wrote in his native tongue; he inherits styles and forms elaborated by those who lived before him. At the same time, though, he feels that those old means of expression are not adequate to his own experience.
Gramarye Quotes : pic 001487610
Language is properly the servant of thought, but not unfrequently becomes its master. The conceptions of a feeble writer are greatly modified by his style; a man of vigorous powers makes his style bend to his conceptions.

Et, si non liceat scribere, mutus ero.]

Gramarye Quotes : pic 001030449
The important thing is not the planning of an Index Verborum Prohibitorum of current noble nouns, but rather the examination of their linguistic function.
Gramarye Quotes : pic 000469195
At painful times, when composition is impossible and reading is not enough, grammars and dictionaries are excellent for distraction.
Gramarye Quotes : pic 000531583
Some minds, at some point, discover that they can not make sense of their own predications without attention to grammar, although they do not ordinarily think of what they are doing as an exercise in grammar.
Gramarye Quotes : pic 001072747
The flesh of prose gets its shape and strength from the bones of grammar.
Gramarye Quotes : pic 000698776

Gramarye Quotes : pic 000671400
Our sense of what American English is has upended our relationship to articulateness, our approach to writing, and how (and whether) we impart it to the young, our interest in poetry, and our conception of what it is, and even our response to music and how we judge it.
Gramarye Quotes : pic 000741161
The German mind, may it live! Almost invisible as a mind, it finally manifests itself assertively as a conviction.

Gramarye Quotes : pic 001713898
Though it's true that (dictionary-maker Samuel) Johnson sometimes seem to feel that the language was in decline, he didn't rail against it with (Jonathan) Swift's anger. Instead, he hoped the example of his dictionary would temper that change by providing a distinguished literary example
