I believe that when
the last ding-dong of doom has clanged and faded
from the last worthless rock hanging tideless
in the last red and dying evening,
that even then there will still be one more sound:
that of [man’s] puny inexhaustible voice,
still talking.
~ William Faulkner, Banquet Speech at the Nobel Banquet at the City Hall in Stockholm, (12/10/50)

It’s amazing that with all the talking going on, there is so little communicating happening.
