"The written word is the shadow cast by speech"
"By giving priority to language we give priority to consciousness, and remain within the framework of the old idealist philosohpy. We fetishize it...The need for coherence, essential though it is, must take second place to the summons of openings, and must not be allowed to become a fetish." - Henri Lefebvre, Introduction to Modernity, 1961
