Anyone nit-picking enough to write a letter of correction to an editor doubtless deserves the error that provoked it. Anyone nit-picking enough to write a letter of correction to an editor doubtless deserves the error that provoked it.Change is not merely necessary to life--it is life.Change is the process by which the future invades our lives.Fear is interest paid on a debt you may not owe.Future shock is the shattering stress and disorientation that we induce in individuals by subjecting them to too much change in too short a time. I confess it being difficult for me to read certain
passages of Jefferson and Paine . . . without being

It is better to err on the side of daring than the side of caution.Knowledge is the most democratic source of power.Man has a limited biological capacity for change. When this capacity is overwhelmed, the capacity is in future shock. One of the definitions of sanity is the ability to tell real from unreal. Soon we'll need a new definition. Parenthood remains the greatest single preserve of the amateur.The future arrives too soon and in the wrong order.The illiterate of the 21st century will not be those who cannot read and write, but those who cannot learn, unlearn and relearn.
