”Holy mackerel, the world is becoming flat. Several technological and political forces have converged, and that has produced a global, Web-enabled playing field that allows for multiple forms of collaboration without regard to geography or distance -or soon, even language.”-Thomas Friedman (Author and Journalist)

”But the world is not flat. Those of us on the top, with the right education and in the right countries, can easily overlook the countries and the people stuck in deep craters across the global landscape.” -Nancy Birdsall (Founding president of the Center for Global Development)
