“For millions of years, mankind lived just like the animals. Then something happened which unleashed the power of our imagination. We learned to talk and we learned to listen. Speech has allowed the communication of ideas, enabling human beings to work together to build the impossible.

With the technology at our disposal, the possibilities are unbounded. All we need to do is make sure we keep talking.”
