Jane Wagner Quotes
We speculated what it was like before we got language skills. When we humans had our first thought, most likely we didn’t know what to think. It’s hard to think without words ‘cause you haven’t got a clue as to what you’re thinking. So if you think we suffer from a lack of communication now, think what it must have been like then, when people lived in a ‘verbal void’ - made worse by the fact that there were no words such as ‘verbal void‘.
