*The idea of reviving the Hebrew language on the lips of the people, which we have preached since the day we first began to speak of the nation’s revival, is—by the help of God—steadily advancing and taking root in our land. From day to day this idea clothes itself with more flesh and sinew, ceasing to be a mere spiritual notion and beginning to become something tangible and real.

*If there is in Jerusalem a language of the land for the Jews—that is, a language shared by all—it is only the Hebrew tongue. The number of Jews in Jerusalem is greater than that of all the other inhabitants combined, and it alone unites all the members of the different communities. Only through its power can one heart and one spirit be given to all. [In short:] for the Jews, it is the language of the land.

*As long as our people dwelling in the Land of the Holy speak foreign tongues—each man the language of the land from which he came: Spanish, Ashkenazic, Norse, Arabic, Greek, and so on—there is no hope that we shall here become one people, of one heart and one counsel.
*We are a rabble, we are the generation of Babel, who cannot understand one another’s speech; and thus our hearts have grown distant from each other.
*Only when the day comes that we all speak one language — then we shall be one people. That day will surely come, and the one language will be Hebrew.
