Quote:
Philosophers disagree on the question whether in one's mind, these words are also the primary elements of thought , or if thinking happens before they enter into play.

The most creative part of thinking lies there where it has not yet reached the stage of words, language.
What people refer to as "daydreaming" is no dreaming at all. It's thinking. Before thinking takes form. Eventuallly it becomes 'words', a concious thought, idea, plan or action. Fit to be shared or worked out or not.
