Johnson say about lexicographers dictionary makers that they do not get the praise they deserve.
One of the most well known dictionaries throughout history is Samuel Johnson's Dictionary of the English Language. Johnson describes how he found the language to be "copious without order, and energe tick without norms" in the book's prologue.
Everywhere he glanced, he saw uncertainty and ambiguity that needed to be resolved, and he believed that English was in desperate need of some discipline.
Although language is continually evolving, Johnson realized during the process of assembling the dictionary that it is impossible to correct it and that his job was to record the language of the day rather than create it.
