There's an article in the New York Times that was posted a few months ago (probably around August 2010 or so).
Try typing in "Does Your Language Shape How You Think?" into Google, including quotation marks, and it will turn
up. I think you'll find it very interesting.

That article on the New York Times is really interesting and makes me look at German in a
different light now.
