"Studying many languages fills the memory with words instead of facts and thoughts, whereas it is a vessel that in each person can absorb only a certain, limited amount of content. Furthermore, studying many languages is harmful in that it arouses the belief that one possesses some special knowledge and, in social interaction, actually gives a person a somewhat seductive appearance; it is also indirectly harmful because it hinders the acquisition of substantial knowledge and the effort to earn people's respect honestly. Finally, it undermines the more subtle linguistic intuition regarding one's native language; as a result, the latter is irreparably spoiled and destroyed."
