“The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings, but shorter tempers; wider freeways, but narrower viewpoints. We spend more, but have less; we buy more, but enjoy less. We have more degrees, but less sense; more knowledge, but less judgment, more experts, yet more problems; steep profits and shallow relationships.”
Thomas Wing Fat Fung, founder of the Fairchild Group conglomerate, University of British Columbia
