Q: What is the relationship between pure thought and language? (Is communication conceivable independent of culture?
RBF: “What is pure? I define Universe as the sum of all men’s consciously apprehended and communicated experiences. Communication can be to self or others. Without communication experience is meaningless. Without communication there can be no awareness. The relationship between thought and language is if someone wants to hear what you’re thinking: that would be the big relationship.”
