is that they make unexpected linguistic associations." --- Jasia Reichardt
"There is no reason for the poet to be limited to words, and in fact the
poet is most poetic when inventing languages. Hence the concept of the poet
as 'language designer'." --- O. B. Hardison, Jr.

probably overtake the number of surviving natural languages." - Cullen Murphy
