Ludwig Wittgenstein
“The limits of my language means the limits of my world.”
Ludwig Wittgenstein

Douglas Adams
“Words used carelessly, as if they did not matter in any serious way, often allowed otherwise well-guarded truths to seep through.”
Douglas Adams, The Long Dark Tea-Time of the Soul

Tom Stoppard
“Words... They're innocent, neutral, precise, standing for this, describing that, meaning the other, so if you look after them you can build bridges across incomprehension and chaos. But when they get their corners knocked off, they're no good any more... I don't think writers are sacred, but words are. They deserve respect. If you get the right ones in the right order, you can nudge the world a little or make a poem which children will speak for you when you're dead.”
Tom Stoppard, The Real Thing

George Orwell
“But if thought corrupts language, language can also corrupt thought.”
George Orwell, Politics and the English Language
