“In France, we have laïcité, which means that atheism is almost our state religion. But I think a very important part of Western culture is in the centuries when Christianism was dominant and was present in almost all works of art - not only liturgical works, but also literature and music. Yes, it's important to have that in our present. It doesn't mean that people have to adhere to a dogma or practice a religion, but it's part of our heritage, and you have to at least try to understand it. Otherwise you can't be a modern person.” PeopleThinkingTryingMeanPersonsArtImportantStatesCultureLiteraturePracticeAtheismModernCenturyWesternFranceWorks Of ArtHeritageDogmaDominantWestern CultureLiterature And Music Author:Eugene Green
“When you speak a foreign language, you become someone else. If you aren't used to speaking a language, and you start speaking it again, for the first few sentences you'll find yourself in very strange shape, because you're still the person who was speaking the first language. But if you keep speaking that language, you will become the person who corresponds to it.” IfsFirstsPersonsStillsUsedSpeakLanguageStrangeShapesSentencesFinding YourselfForeign Language Author:Eugene Green
