Hangul

"Han'gul is perhaps the most scientific system of writing in general use in any country."

"Whether or not it is ultimately the best of all conceivable scripts for Korean, Hangeul must be unquestionably ranked as one of the greatest intellectual achievements of humankind."

"國之語音，異乎中國，與文字不相流通，故愚民，有所欲言，而終不得伸其情者多矣。予爲此憫然，新制二十八字，欲使人人易習便於日用耳"
