Language is the dress of thought.

Summary

This quote suggests that language acts as the outward garment or attire that decorates and expresses our thoughts. It implies that just as clothing can convey clues about a person's personality and style, language reveals the nature and depth of our thoughts. Our choice of words, manner of expression, and overall linguistic proficiency contribute to shaping how others interpret and perceive our thoughts. Therefore, language serves as an essential medium through which our thoughts are exhibited and understood by others.
