"Computer language is binary. Human communication usually isn't."

Which is pithy, and personally, I've never met a pithy saying or pun I didn't like, but nevertheless, the problem with cute pithy stuff is it's easy to say and 'get' but not necessarily write.

I'll say, "Writing on paper is just ink/pencil scratches on paper, human communication usually isn't"

Does that make sense? Of course not. Humans communicate far more with abstract symbols, (writing, art, whatever), then ever with face to face communication. This is something I think most people take as a given, but since there was no reply to this, I felt compelled to slap this in here.
