More quotes by Walter J. Ong
Without writing, the literate mind would not and could not think as it does, not only when engaged in writing but normally even when it is composing its thoughts in oral form. More than any other single invention writing has transformed human consciousness.
Walter J. Ong
There is no way to write unless you read, and read a lot.
Walter J. Ong
For the way in which the word is experienced is always momentous
Walter J. Ong
Print encourages a sense of closure, a sense that what is found in a text has been finalized, has reached a state of completion.
Walter J. Ong
