More from John Dewey
Vision is a spectator; hearing is a participator.
Ideas which are not communicated, shared, and reborn in expression are but soliloquy, and soliloquy is but broken and imperfect thought.
But the wingèd words of conversation in immediate intercourse have a vital import lacking in the fixed and frozen words of written speech.
Publication is partial and the public which results is partially informed and formed until the meanings it purveys pass from mouth to mouth.
