We have bigger houses, but smaller families
more conveniences, but less time.
We have more degrees, but less sense
more knowledge, but less judgments
more experts, but more problems
more medicines, but less healthiness.

We have been all the way to the moon and back,
but have trouble crossing the street
to meet the new neighbour.
We build more computers
to hold more information
to produce more copies than ever
but have less communication.
We have become long on quantity,
but short on quality.
These are times of fast food,
but slow digestion all
tall man, but short character
steep profits, but shallow relationships.
It is a time when there is much in the window,
but nothing in the room.

His Holiness the XIVth Dalai Lama
