"Dubito, ergo, cogito, cogito ergo sum" [I doubt therefore I think, I think therefore I am] ~René Descartes Dwayne
“ In our human reactions, speech in general is an inborn characteristic, but what special language or what special structure of language we acquire is due to environment and copying—much too often to unconscious and, therefore, uncritical copying.
Alfred Korzybski, Polish-American philosopher, scientist, mathematician, author of Science & Sanity: An Introduction to Non-Aristotelian Systems and General Semantics, and is remembered most for developing the theory of general semantics (1879-1950)
