let’s get to talking!!!
June 26th, 2009
“Speech has allowed the communication of ideas, enabling human beings to work together to build the impossible. Mankind’s greatest achievements have come about by talking, and its greatest failures by not talking. It doesn’t have to be like this. Our greatest hopes could become reality in the future. With the technology at our disposal, the possibilities are unbounded. All we need to do is make sure we keep talking.”

I find language incredibly fascinating because it is the barrier that separates us from understanding the life and experiences of another. I think that violence in a essence is a misunderstanding of expectations or desires, in summation a failure to communicate. Thank you Mr. Hawking.
