“It is impossible that old prejudices and hostilities should longer exist, while such an instrument has been created for the exchange of thought between all the nations of the earth.” --Charles Briggs on hearing news of the first transatlantic telegraph cable in 1858, quoted in Tom Standage, The Victorian Internet (New York: Walker and Company, 1998) 83. [This source collects many analogous quotes.]
