Piero Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 “Few travelled in these days, for, thanks to the advance of science, the earth was exactly alike all over. Rapid intercourse, from which the previous civilisation had hoped so much, had ended by defeating itself. What was the good of going to Peking when it was just like Shrewsbury? Why return to Shrewsbury when it would all be like Peking? Men seldom moved their bodies; all unrest was concentrated in the soul.” (E.M. Forster, The Machine Stops, 1909) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
