What a person learns from another person in his childhood is ultimately a similar process to that which must have taken place when he sees the child learning to speak.

We will see how the language of civilization today is based on convention - or on “correct expression” - which must always be inartistic. In the original languages, speech was based more on what man wanted to reveal out of himself.
