Writing destroys the ability to memorize and we weaken thought. Those who use tend to forget as they rely on an exterior mechanism in order to remember.
I agree with this statement because since writing was discovered or invented, oral tradition in most of civilization disappeared. It carried out that civilizations focus on what they write and transmit information generation by generation in a written way. Now we are still following this way to remember because our memory is not working as it should. Most of the times we have to write in our agenda to remember things we have to do next. Also I am not saying that it is not useful nowadays. We do it and for most of the people is an important tool to remember things.
