by Larry Niven
"The best and brightest... He's faster that [sic] a speeding bullet. He's more powerful than a locomotive. He's able to leap tall buildings at a single bound. So why can't Superman get a girl? See: Man of Steel, Woman of Kleenex. Why would the happiest people in the world kill themselves? See: All the Myriad Ways. Teleportation is any method of moving from point to point in negligible time. Over short distances we will take lightspeed as negligible. Over longer distances--interplanetary and interstellar--we will require infinite or near-infinite speed. See: The Theory and Practice of Teleportation."--Pg. [4] of cover.
