Quote by Popper Péter
English (Source)
Is the language that is degraded into slang and blasphemy by the tyrants of the entertainment industry and politics sacred? Are the words that were so guarded, cherished, nicknamed - regardless of their Serbian, Slovak, Jewish, German, Romanian origin - the greatest sons of the Hungarian people, writers, poets, actors, real statesmen? Do words that have been stripped of their meaning remain sacred? (...) Is it a coincidence that the Greek and Latin high cultures put the artists of language, the masters of rhetoric on a pedestal, and chased away from the public the corrupters of language and style. They knew well that when they protect the purity of the language, they protect their country, they protect the culture that they loved and respected as their motherland.
