1 Thought
My hypothesis then is that thought models, or parallels, reality-that its essential feature is not "the mind," "the self," "sense-data," nor propositions but symbolism, and that this symbolism is largely of the same kind as that which is familiar to us in mechanical devices which aid thought and calculation. (Craik, 1943, p. 57)Human thought begins with images, and still projects them into the symbols with which it learns to work. It is certainly true to say that human language is largely symbolic, and that animal communication is not. (Bronowski, 1977, p. 105)Historical dictionary of quotations in cognitive science > Thought
