If rewriting equals rereading, we must logically conclude that writing is reading. If this is indeed the case, how could we possibly write under a ban on reading? The only way left is mouth-to-mouth — poets and storytellers recite their pieces and before we can commit them to memory, everything vanishes into thin air. Kyoko Yoshida
