What is a good sentence to open the personal statement for my university application with?

I’m applying for a degree in modern languages and I want the sentence to be something along the lines of “languages are essential in the developing world” How can I word it so it’s catchy?

Answer #1

With the approval of my entrance application, you’ll be getting an extremely self-motivated person who will bring great credit upon myself and this University….

Answer #2

I want it to be more Languages oriented than that.. something along the lines of “in this developing world I feel that learning a language is essential” but better worded xD

Answer #3

According to Genesis mankind defied God and united to build a tower to the heavens. God punished their hubris by scattering mankind across the Earth and confounding their language into many mutually inscrutable tongues. While mankind’s efforts to build a tower to the heavens was doomed from the start, being divided by the languages we speak stands as an obstacle to mankind’s more worthwhile endeavors.

Answer #4

But… I’m not religious… also, it sounds too philosophical for me, that’s almost like lying xD
