" The discovery of the alphabet will create
forgetfulness in the learners' souls, because they will not use their
memories; they will trust to the external written characters and not
remember of themselves...You give your disciples not truth but only the
semblance of truth; they will be heroes of many things, and will have
learned nothing; they will appear to be omniscient and will generally
know nothing." - Socrates
