Everything said is said by someone.
Humberto R. Maturana & Francisco J. Varela, The Tree of Knowledge: The Biological Roots of Human Understanding, 1999, p. 26.
Everything is said by someone in the expectation of being understood by someone else. Everything heard as being said is heard being said by someone and calls for a response.
Klaus Krippendorff, Cybernetics Discussion Group, June 14, 1999, adding a relational note.
