Why did one media company have to move beyond paper and ink?
One quote says a communications group couldn't remain solely in paper and ink if it wanted to grow into a broader media company.
How does one quote compare ink to animal behavior?
It draws a pointed parallel, saying humans mark their territory with ink much like animals mark theirs with their own excretions.
Does one speaker say they only understand the world through writing?
Yes, they say they don't see the world unless they see it captured in ink, tying perception directly to writing.
Are these quotes only about literal writing?
Mostly, but the animal comparison stretches the idea of ink into something closer to marking or claiming space.
