Suppose a white man should come to me and say, "joseph, i like your horses. i want to buy them." i say to him, "no, my horses suit me; i will not sell them." then he goes to my neighbor and says to him, "joseph has some good horses. i want to buy them, but he refuses to sell." my neighbor answers, "pay me the money and i will sell you joseph's horses." the white man returns to me and says, "joseph, i have bought your horses and you must let me have them." if we sold our lands to the government, this is the way they bought them.

I work in hebrew. hebrew is deeply inspired by other languages. not now, for the last three thousand years, hebrew has been penetrated and fertilized by ancient semitic languages - by aramaic, by greek, by latin, by arabic, by yiddish, by latino, by german, by russian, by english, i could go on and on. it's very much like english. the english language took in many many fertilizations, many many genes, from other languages, from foreign languages - latin, french, nordic languages, german, scandinavian languages. every language has influences and is an influence.
Latin Greek Language
To follow jesus implies that we enter into a way of life that is given character and shape and direction by the one who calls us. to follow jesus means picking up rhythms and ways of doing things that are often unsaid but always derivative from jesus, formed by the influence of jesus. to follow jesus means that we can't separate what jesus is saying from what jesus is doing and the way that he is doing it. to follow jesus is as much, or maybe even more, about feet as it is about ears and eyes" (the way of jesus, eugene h. peterson, 22).
Jesus Character Mean
May we incorporate into our own lives the divine principles which he joseph smith so beautifully taught by example, that we, ourselves, might live more completely the gospel of jesus christ. . . may our lives reflect the knowledge we have that god lives, that jesus christ is his son, that joseph smith was a prophet and that we are led today by another prophet of god - even president gordon b. hinckley.

The revival of hebrew, as a spoken language, is a fascinating story, which i'm afraid i cannot squeeze into a few sentences. but, let me give you a clue. think about elizabethan english, where the entire english language behaved pretty much like molten lava, like a volcano in mid-eruption. modern hebrew has some things in common with elizabethan english. it is being reshaped and it's expanding very rapidly in various directions. this is not to say that every one of us israeli writers is a william shakespeare, but there is a certain similarity to elizabethan english.
Thinking Giving Common
Literature belongs first and foremost to the language in which it is being written. the very same book, even if it is translated very accurately, let's say from hebrew into english or from english into hebrew, becomes a different book because language is a musical instrument.

I finish the book so i can see how it's going to end. i write that first sentence, and if it's the right first sentence, it leads to the right second sentence and three years later you have a 500-page manuscript, but it really is like going on a trip, going on a journey. it's a voyage.

I feel that for years of teaching in the country and reading criticism in books, i feel like the things most needed in our culture are the understanding of the meanings of our music. we haven't done that good of job teaching our kids what our music means or how we developed our taste in music that reminds us and teaches us who we are.

Whether the author intended a symbolic resonance to exist in her book is irrelevant. all that matters is whether it's there. because the book does not exist for the benefit of the author, the book exists for the benefit of you. if we as readers can have a bigger and richer experience with the world as a result of reading a symbol and that symbol wasn't intended by the author, we still win.
