Aleksandr I. Kuprin, 1903
Time has become so expensive that night is soon to be turned into day, for the need for such a doubled life is already felt. A transaction that used to take months is now completed in five minutes. But even this damnable speed does not satisfy our impatience..... Soon we will see each other by wire at a distance of hundreds and thousands of kilometers!...! Meanwhile, only fifty years ago, our ancestors, going from the village to the "province", served a prayer service without hurry and set off with a supply sufficient for a polar expedition.
