"Governments of the Industrial World, you weary giants of flesh and steel, I come from Cyberspace, the new home of Mind. On behalf of the future, I ask you of the past to leave us alone. You are not welcome among us. You have no sovereignty where we gather."

...

"We will create a civilization of the Mind in Cyberspace. May it be more humane and fair than the world your governments have made before."

- J. P. Barlow
