Man's greatest invention is not the TV;
Nor is it the radio, it seems to me.
It isn't the airplane, it isn't the car;
As wonderful as these inventions all are.
It's not the computer or cellular phone;
Or any device or machine that is known.
No nuclear weapon of war ever shook;
The world like man's greatest invention ---- the book.
...Charles Osgood
