In Mesopotamia, writing was invented for the first time in history
Writing is one of humanity’s greatest victories in the unending battle against time
Death cannot defeat us after that. Writing has given us the strength to communicate through generations and cross millennium after millennium, to reach our great achievements to all parts of the world.
From Mesopotamia I learned all of humanity, writing
And in writing, the name of Iraq was immortalized
(Neil Tyson – cosmologist and astrophysicist)
