  (page 35 of 430)
"To survive what we have termed future shock, one must search out totally new ways to anchor oneself, for all the old roots - religion, nation, community, family, or profession - are shaking under the impact of accelerative thrust.

Before that, however, he must understand how the effects of acceleration creep into his personal life and affect, alter his behaviour.

He must, in other words, understand transience."
