Your Morning Marshall

For Monday, April 14th, 2025

Week 110 of our regular morning feature here at Friedman of the Plains Worldwide in which we highlight the great words and works of great men and women, as well as those who are insufferable, delusional, and even fictional.

This Week Marshall McLuhan

Bonus Marshall

“To see a man slip on a banana skin is to see a rationally structured system suddenly translated into a whirling machine.” — Understanding Media: The Extensions of Man
