That's not how I brought you up, English

I found this on a forum last night: "English doesn't borrow from other languages. English follows other languages down dark alleys, knocks them over the head, and goes through their pockets for loose grammar!" Ha Ha!

Wow, that's one of the best descriptions of the English language I've ever heard. Very cleverly expressed. Do you know who wrote it?

Jill, I actually saw that quote in my medical transcription forum. I don't know if an MT made it up or not.
