Hermann Hesse Quote

In the meantime the Great Revolution occurred and moved throughout the entire world – that strange transformation of human beings and things. It arose like a ghost or malady from the smoke of the first steam machines and transformed life all over the place. The world became full of work and industry. It came to be ruled by machines and was continually propelled to accomplish new kinds of work.
