Dream Up The Kind Of World You

Books! I Dunno If I Ever Told You This, But Books Are The Greatest Gift One Person Can Give Another.

Sadly, I Do My Homework. I've A Soft Spot For The Boring Minutiae. I Read The Charter Of The United Nations Before Meeting With Kofi Annan. I Read The Meltzer Report, And Then I'll Read C. Fred Bergsten's Defense Of Institutions Like The World Bank And The I.m.f. It's Embarrassing To Admit.

If September 11th Has Taught Us Anything, It's Certainly That The World Has Never Been So Interdependent. It Is Impossible Now To Be An Island Of Prosperity In A Sea Of Despair.

I Truly Believe That When The History Books Are Written, Our Age Will Be Remembered For Three Things: The War On Terror, The Digital Revolution, And What We Did - Or Did Not Do - To Put The Fire Out In Africa. History, Like God, Is Watching What We Do.

What Turns Me On About The Digital Age, What Excited Me Personally, Is That You Have Closed The Gap Between Dreaming And Doing. You See, It Used To Be That If You Wanted To Make A Record Of A Song, You Needed A Studio And A Producer. Now, You Need A Laptop.
