First we thought the PC was a calculator. Then we found out how to turn numbers into letters with ASCII — and we thought it was a typewriter.
No matter how we advance technologically, we should never abandon the book. There is nothing in our material world more beautiful than a book.
Then we discovered graphics, and we thought it was a television.
Books may look like nothing more than words on a page, but they are actually an infinitely complex imaginotransference technology that translates odd, inky squiggles into pictures inside your head.
And now, with the World Wide Web, we’ve realized it’s a brochure.
The most technologically efficient machine that man has ever invented is the book.
