Between France and Senegal there's a history. There's a language that we both speak. There's a culture that we share and to which both of our peoples have contributed. But beyond our history beyond our language beyond the links that have united us for so long what unites us today is the future.

The future author is one who discovers that language the exploration and manipulation of the resources of language will serve him in winning through to his way.

Language is the armory of the human mind and at once contains the trophies of its past and the weapons of its future conquests.

I am a lover of truth a worshipper of freedom a celebrant at the altar of language and purity and tolerance.

I loved everything about Spain - the people the language and the food!
