- “Facts are facts and will not disappear on account of your likes.”
- “There is nothing more horrifying than stupidity in action.”
- “A language is something infinitely greater than grammar and philology. It is the poetic testament of the genius of a race and a culture, and the living embodiment of the thoughts and fancies that have moulded them”
