“Leisure has been gained by a vast number of people who until recently had been merely beasts of burden with as much chance to read a book or listen to a symphony as a mule in the army or a pony in the mine. When leisure shall at last have been provided for all of us, it will no longer be necessary to fill the few spare hours of these tired toilers with those depressing forms of entertainment like the radio or the movies, that have no other purpose than to make people forget the unbearable dullness of their own drab existence” — Hendrick Van Loon
