Citazioni 

Language may be looked upon as an instrument capable of running a gamut of psychic uses. [...] the outward form only of language is constant; its inner meaning, its psychic value or intensity, varies freely with attention or the selective interest of the mind, also, needless to say, with the mind's general development.
- Sapir (1921), a pag.15
