‘Afstand scheidt enkel de lichamen, niet de geesten’ (Erasmus)

Desiderius Erasmus, the well known Dutch Renaissance humanist, once said that:

“Distance only separates our bodies, our minds are always connected”.

Which is a remarkable contribution to the Virtual Happiness Hypothesis. Especially when you think of the fact that Erasmus lived from 1469 - 1536.

And no, he didn’t have a weblog either.
