"It is quite an illusion to imagine that one adjusts to reality essentially without the use of language and that language is merely an incidental means of solving specific problems of communication or reflection."
Communication

Gift

Adoption
"In a sense, every form of expression is imposed upon one by social factors, one's own language above all."
