Quote of the day
Now the whole earth used only one language, with few words.
On the occasion of a migration from the east, men discovered a plain in
the land of Shinar, and settled there. Then they said to one another, "Come,
let us make bricks, burning them well." So they used bricks for stone,
and bitumen for mortar. Then they said, "Come, let us build ourselves a
city with a tower whose top shall reach the heavens (thus making a name
for ourselves), so that we may not be scattered all over the earth." Then
the Lord came down to look at the city and tower which human beings had
built. The Lord said, "They are just one people and they all have the same
language. If this is what they can do as a beginning, then nothing that
they resolve to do will be impossible for them. Come, let us go down, and
there make such a babble of their language that they will not understand
one another's speech." Thus the Lord dispersed them from there all over
the earth, so that they had to stop building the city. (Book of Genesis,
11:1-8).
