Our national flower is the concrete cloverleaf.
-Lewis Mumford
I care more for that long age which I shall never see than for my own small share of time.
-Cicero
Marcus Tullius Cicero lived in ancient Rome about 2,100 years ago. We are part of the future “Long age” he speaks about.
Imagine Cicero coming to visit us today. What would he think of our concern for the future? Would he praise our environmental progress? What would he say about our schools? What else might impress him as either good or bad?
