"Radio destroyed distance and connected all the ships and all the cities of the earth with an invisible but strong link. Then it embraced trains, automobiles and airplanes… Then it entered homes. It entered as a teacher, a friend, a reference book, a newspaper and a musical instrument. Now it brings cinema into homes, and soon it will be able to break out of the globe, and create thousands of things that we cannot even foresee."
