We have taller buildings,but shorter tempers.
Wider freeways,but narrower viewpoints.
We spend more,but have less.
We buy more,but enjoy it less
We have bigger houses and smaller families.
We have bigger houses and smaller families.
More conveniences, but less time.
We have more degrees, but less sense.
More knowledge, but less judgment.
More experts, but more problems.
More medicine, but less wellness
We drink too much, smoke too much, spend too recklessly,
Laugh too little, drive too fast, get too angry too quickly,
Stay up too late, get up too tired, read too little,
Watch TV too much, and pray too seldom
We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values.
We talk too much, love too seldom, and hate too often.
We've learned how to make a living, but not a life;
We've added years to life, not life to years
We've been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet the new neighbour.
We've conquered outer space, but not inner space;
We've done larger things, but not better things
We've cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul.
We've split the atom, but not our prejudice.
We write more, but learn less;
We plan more, but accomplish less;
We've learned to rush, but not to wait;
We have higher incomes, but lower morals;
We have more food, but less appeasement;
We build more computers to hold more information to produce more copies than ever, but have less communication
We've become long on quantity, but short on quality
These are the times of fast foods and slow digestion; tall men, and short character; steep profits, and shallow relationships
These are the times of world peace, but domestic warfare; more leisure, but less fun; more kinds of food, but less nutrition
These are days of two incomes, but more divorces; of fancier houses, but broken homes
These are days of quick trips, disposable diapers, throw away morality, one-night stands, overweight bodies, and pills that do everything from cheer, to quiet, to kill
-Dr. Bob Moorehead-
