The modern mind tends to be more and more critical and analytical in spirit, hence it must devise for itself an engine of expression which is logically defensible at every point and which tends to correspond to the rigorous spirit of modern science.

  • -- Edward Sapir 爱德华·萨皮尔

现代思维在精神上越来越具有批判性和分析性，因此它必须为自己设计一种表达引擎，这种引擎在任何一点上都是逻辑上站得住脚的，而且往往与现代科学的严谨精神相对应。
