Daily Dose

From The News: A User's Manual, by Alain de Botton

"In one sense, the great goal of the Enlightenment has been achieved: the average citizen now has near-instantaneous access to information about events in every nation on earth.  But we've also been forced to learn something rather more surprising: no one is particularly interested."

From Information/Imagination, 2.
