Guest guest Posted October 22, 2009 Report Share Posted October 22, 2009 People are fooled all the time by words. The words " you " and " me " are no more " personal " than the words " sky " or " tree " , aside from whatever meanings are attached by the reader. A math textbook does not say " I need you to understand, I'm desperate for you to understand the theory of quadratic equations " . It says " the theory of quadratic equations is as follows: " ... it is impersonal. As all words actually are. There are no actual " you's " or " me's " . The only use for words is in conveying information, like the math textbook. But people are fooled... people " co-dream " , make each other up, because they want to be fooled. Two lovers cooing at each other is no different than two birds chirping, and no different than the math textbook. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
