We have taller buildings, but shorter tempers; wider freeways, but narrower viewpoints;

我们的住房越来越高，情绪越来越糟；道路越来越宽阔，眼光却越来越狭隘；

The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings, but shorter tempers; wider freeways, but narrower viewpoints.

我们处于历史上的矛盾时代：我们有了更高大的楼房，但是心胸变狭小了；有了更宽的高速公路，但是视角变窄了。
