Words:
“I hope that I have been successful in communicating this to you conceptually without recourse to pictures. No man has ever seen outside of himself. He always sees in his brain. I think it is easy to stimulate the brain conceptioning by words as it is by graphics. I often find in lectures that I don’t have to show the slides-- which I had been prepared to do-- because I found as intuitive or telepathic feedback from the audience that people had conjured up in their own brains from my words the very picture which I had intended to show but had gone on spontaneously to describe in advance. It is my intuitive surmise that the pictures thus conjured up are more powerfully planted in the other man’s brain than those resulting from the beams of light bounced off a photograph back to the human eye lenses, retina, and nerve connections and after to be scanned and image-ed (imagined) in the brain.”
(Underlined clause added by RBF in 1972- eja.)
