“We are the luckiest generation. We have experienced more freedom, leisure time, education, medicine, and travel than any people in history. Great ideas keep coming.

But the world of ideas is not: The ever-increasing exchange of ideas causes the ever-increasing rate of innovation in the modern world. We will never exhaust our supply of ideas, discoveries, and inventions.”
