It will do us little good to wire the world if we short circut our souls. There is no delete button for racism, poverty, or sectarian violence. No key stroke can ever clean the air, save a river, preserve a forest. This transformational new technology must be an extension of our hearts as well as of our mind.

People do not like to have their favorite myths of idols challenged and as a rule I think that the public does not like bad news.
Tom Brokaw
I hope the World War II generation doesn't lose that quality that made them so appealing: their modesty, and the way they are always looking forward and seldom back.

While attendance at traditional churches has been declining for decades... the evangelical movement is growing, and it is changing the way America worships.
Tom Brokaw
It is, I believe, the greatest generation any society has ever produced.

I think it's very much a matter between Barbara Walters and ABC.

Bob Hope was an entertainment colossus, shrewd and influential well beyond show business. Richard Zoglin's biography captures it all--the public and private Hope.
