Citazioni | The unimpeded breath takes on a particular color or quality in accordance with the varying shape of the oral resonance chamber. All the individual color of speech -personal emphasis, speed, personal cadence, personal pitch -is a non-linguistic fact [...] The literature fashioned out of the form and substance of a language has the color and the texture of its matrix. |
