"Language, that is to say makes progress possible." (7, LiTA)
This is true. If language allows us to learn from the past, then we have a foundation upon which to build our society. Without this foundation, we would need to lay a new one every time we try to learn something, spending our lives learning what has already been learned and never progressing any farther.
