> One of those rare artifacts that changed the world. It's so enriching to see one of these artifacts - I don't think it's quite possible to understand the feeling without seeing one of them in real life. A really memorable moment was stubmling across the two oldest surviving printing presses at a small museum in Antwerp - [the Plantin-Moretus museum](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plantin%E2%80%93Moretus_Museum). Everybody strolled right by it - for me, just looking at it made me feel more connected to the history of the written word. | ||
