“Lest we forget that Shakespeare spelled his surname in five different ways. None of them was S H A K E S P E A R E.”
Ghil'ad Zuckermann, Revivalistics : From the Genesis of Israeli to Language Reclamation in Australia and Beyond

“Seven Jews have changed the way we perceive the world: Moses said ‘Everything is in the head!’, Jesus said ‘Everything is in the heart!’, Marx said ‘Everything is in the stomach!’, Freud said ‘Everything is in the loin!’, Zuckermann said ‘Everything is in the tongue!’, Zuckerberg said ‘Everything is online!’, Einstein said ‘Everything is relative!’. The success of language revival is relative. No language reclamation can be fully successful. And as an eighth Jew, Jerry Seinfeld, once said: ‘Not that there’s anything wrong with that!”
Ghil'ad Zuckermann, Revivalistics : From the Genesis of Israeli to Language Reclamation in Australia and Beyond

“• Should we reclaim an Indigenous language in a natural Indigenous setting, to replicate the original ambience of heritage, culture, laws, and lores?
• Should we reclaim an Indigenous language in a modern building that has Indigenous characteristics such as Aboriginal colours and shapes?
• Should we reclaim an Aboriginal language in a western governmental
building—to give an empowering signal that the tribe has full support of contemporary mainstream society?”
