John Dewey: “But the wingèd words of conversation in immediate intercourse have a vital import lacking in the fixed and frozen words…”

Signs and symbols, language, are the means of communication by which a fraternally shared experience is ushered in and sustained.

Competition will continue, but it will be less rivalry for acquisition of material goods, and more an emulation of local groups to enrich direct experience with appreciatively enjoyed intellectual and artistic wealth.

That and that only gives reality to public opinion.

Vision is a spectator; hearing is a participator.
