"Laymen are generally lousy linguists: they do not know what questions to ask, they do not know how to look for answers to them and they are too ready to accept generalizations to which they could easily find counter examples."
---James D. McCawley

"Asking a linguist how many languages they speak is like asking a doctor how many diseases they have."
---Lynne Murphy (aka lynneguist)
