BLOGGING JEWISH IN DUTCHESS
...”And now, since you are the father of writing, your affection for it made you describe its effects as the opposite of what they really are. In fact, it will introduce forgetfulness into the souls of those who learn it: they will not practice using their memory because they will put their trust in writing, which is external and depends on signs that belong to others, instead of trying to remember from the inside, completely on their own. You have not discovered a potion for remembering but for reminding; you provide your students with the appearance of wisdom, not its reality. Your invention will enable them to hear many things without being properly taught, and they will imagine that they have come to know much while for the most part they will know nothing” (Plato, Phaedrus, ca 350 BCE)
