George Bernard Shaw
said: “This is the true joy in life, the being used for a purpose recognized by
yourself as a mighty one … the being a force of Nature instead of a feverish
selfish little clod of ailments and grievances complaining that the world will
not devote itself to making you happy.”
“Between 1305 and the early 1800’s. the House of Taxis ran a form of pony express service all over Europe…. Its couriers clad in blue and silver uniforms, crisscrossed the continent carrying messages between princes and generals, merchants and money lenders.” –Alvin Toffler, The Third Wave We may think we are the first generation consumed by rapid communication but we are not. Throughout our history it has been a priority. Of course, now in the 21 st century we must ask: are we better or worse for it?
