A time will come ordsprog

A time will come when a politician who has willfully made war and promoted international dissension will be as sure of the dock and much surer of the noose than a private homicide. It is not reasonable that those who gamble with men's lives should not stake their own.

H. G. Wells (1866-1946)

H. G. Wells

As we look down the road four or five years from now we'll realize that the Internet is an important customer service enhancement for the transportation industry. But 90 percent of the time the important thing is 'Did the ship get out of the dock on time?' and 'Did it get into the dock on time.' It's the same for truck or rail.

Trashy private lives of the stars is a given today, and scandal causes hardly a ripple of disapproval.

Nowhere else on earth is so much at stake as in Africa. It is here where most lives are at stake.

Tens of thousands of people's lives are at stake and they could die if we don't get to them in time.
