1. If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his own language, that goes to his heart.
如果你用别人能理解的语言与对方谈话,那么谈话会进入对方的大脑。如果你用对方的语言与之谈话,那么谈话会进入对方的心里。
‒Nelson Mandela
2. One language sets you in a corridor for life. Two languages open every door along the way.
一种语言可以为人生开启一条走廊。俩种语言则会使这条人生走廊的沿途上处处开启大门。
‒Frank Smith
3. The limits of my language are the limits of my world.
语言的限制就是对我的世界的限制。
‒Ludwig Wittgenstein
