"Human bodies are words, myriads of words..."
-Walt Whitman, Song of the Rolling Earth, 1856
"What Western philosophers, right, left, and center, have continued to ignore is that matching the old excludes making the new. Concepts always follow percepts. In fact they are a kind of ossification of percepts - endlessly releated percepts which frequently obscure invention and innovation."
-Marshall Mcluhan and Barrington Nevitt, Causality in the Electric World, 1973
