Codeword Quote

​

Can you work out this quotation about the English language? (mobile phone users may not be able to see this image properly).

Each letter has been replaced with another letter and always with the same letter.

We've given you EIGHT letters to get you started, so the new letter 'X' is always represented by the letter 'E', 'V' becomes the letter 'S', and so on. 

​

There are also these extra clues:

- Single letter words will either be an I or an A.

- A word of 5 or more letters with G as the final letter probably ends ING.

- There are no Q's and Z's, but the letter X occurs twice.
