"The world is too big for us. Too much going on, too many crimes, to much violence and excitement. Try as you will, you get behind in the race, in spite of yourself. It's an incessant strain, to keep pace... And still, you lose ground. Science empties its discoveries on you so fst that you stagger beneath them in hopeless bewilderment. The political world is news seen so rapidly you're out of breath trying to keep pace with sho's in and who's out. Everything is high pressure. Human nature can't endure much more!"
This editorial represents the majority of thinking today. However, it appeared on June 16, 1833 in the Atlantic Journal. Not much has changed, has it?
