The paradox of our age

We have bigger house and smaller families; more convenience, but less time.
We have degrees, but less sense; more knowledge, but less judgement; more experts, but more problems; more medicine, but less healthiness.
We have been all the way to the moon and back, but we have trouble crossing the street to meet the new neighbour.
We built more computers to hold more information to produce more copies than ever, but have less comunication.
We have become long on quantity but short on quality.
These are times of fast foods and slow digestion; tall man and short character;steep profits, and shallow relationships.
It is time where there is more in the window, and nothing in the room.

His Holiness The XIVth Dalai Lama
