William Crookes
Quote
If you had come to me a hundred years ago, do you think I should have dreamed of the telephone? Why, even now I cannot understand it! I use it every day, I transact half my correspondence by means of it, but I don’t understand it. Think of that little stretched disk of iron at the end of a wire repeating in your ear not only sounds, but words — not only words, but all the most delicate and elusive inflections and nuances of tone which separate one human voice from another!
