We are not wholly bad or good, who live our lives under Milk Wood

Dylan Thomas

A view from the bridge

Neil Kinnock, Welshman, European Commissioner for Administrative Reform and Linguistics in 2003:

“it is a pity that Europe abandoned Latin as a common language of

the intellectual and spiritual elite. “my mother got punished if she was caught speaking Welsh at

school “the disappearance of Welsh is not the result of English

imperialism. During the 19th century Irish newcomers learned Welsh. It was the idea of the people themselves that they had to learn English to make progress in the world. That has caused harm to the Welsh language. In recent years the situation is better than ever. The language is taught in schools and used on television

To begin at the beginning:

It is spring, moonless night in the small town, starless and bible-black, the cobblestreets silent and the hunched, courters'-and-rabbits' wood limping invisible down to the sloeblack, slow, black, crowblack, fishingboatbobbing sea.
