Tricky question. Andrew Lang wrote Aribian nights in 1855, however the story originated from aribic in 1706... And the merchant and the genie was a story about Abou Hassan, first written in English by, John Payne.
Alright! So, some inspirational quotes on learning a language. Here's what I found, from a "Voxy Blog."
❝If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his own language, that goes to his heart.❞
❝One language sets you in a corridor for life. Two languages open every door along the way.❞
❝The limits of my language are the limits of my world.❞
❝Learn everything you can, anytime you can, from anyone you can; there will always come a time when you will be grateful you did.❞
❝Learning is a treasure that will follow its owner everywhere.❞
❝You can never understand one language until you understand at least two.❞
❝To have another language is to possess a second soul.❞
❝Those who know nothing of foreign languages know nothing of their own.❞
❝Language is the road map of a culture. It tells you where its people come from and where they are going.❞
❝Language is the blood of the soul into which thoughts run and out of which they grow.❞
I hope this helps you, and if you're trying to learn a new language, I wish you luck! :)
