Communication Quotes

They give to all, who faithfully use them, the society, the spiritual presence of the best and greatest of our race.

We in the richest societies have too many calories even as we starve for beautiful, fresh food; we have overly large houses but lack spaces that truly embody our individuality and connectedness; media surround us everywhere while we starve for authentic communication.
