Mark Twain's languages : | ||
That no one understands another, that the
same words do not arouse the same thought in
one man as in another, that a dialogue or a text
causes different trains of thought in
different individuals, was something I had long
realized all too clearly.
—Goethe
Even meanings born in dialogues of the
remotest past will never be finally grasped
once and for all, for they will always be
renewed in later dialogue.
—Mikhail Bakhtin
now thats also a model of human
understanding sort of though it no longer supposes that
you can penetrate to anybody elses experience
—David Antin
