The Philosopher: One should be able to express oneself. We manage to write things quite well. It's extraordinary that someone like Plato can still be understood. People really do understand him! Yet he wrote in Greek. 2,500 years ago? No one really knows the language, not exactly. Yet something gets through, so we should be able to express ourselves.

The Philosopher: We must think and for thought we need words. To communicate, one must speak. That's our life.
