“Now the 21st century approaches and with it the inevitability of change. We must wonder if the American people will find renewal and rejuvenation within themselves, will discover again their capacity for innovation and adaptation. If not, alas, the nation's future will be shaped by sightless forces of history over which Americans will have no control.”
“At the core of the universe, the face of God wears a smile”
“Mobile phones ... they're not for communicating, they're for broadcasting. Broadcasting The Show Of Me.”
