3. “I love the Web, but the basis of my work is going through the physical books. When you go to the library, you see other books around on the shelves that you never knew existed. You can flip through a book and see the whole outline of it.”
Camille Paglia
Web, Books, Library, Knowledge, Technology
5. “Nothing man has discovered or imagined is to be named with the steam engine. It has no fellow. Franklin capturing the lightning, Morse annihilating space with the telegraph, Bell transmitting speech through the air by the telephone, are not less mysterious – being more ethereal, perhaps in one sense they are even more so – still, the labor of the world performed by heating cold water places Watt and his steam engine in a class apart by itself.” Andrew Carnegie Invention, Technology, Progress, Industry, Innovation
8. “Many Android users aren't aware of some things that Android can already do, such as supporting the enforcement of companywide security policies, encrypting phone data, and providing e-mail and calendar widgets that update in real-time. Our job is to help people and businesses discover and use these features.” Guy Kawasaki Technology, Android, Security, Business, Innovation
15. “I think a lot of the logic of Google+ is much better in terms of notification of messages to you, in terms of how you post. One very obvious feature is that with Google+, after you post something, you can edit it forever. That is true of both posts and comments. I edit almost every post I make and almost every comment I make.” Guy Kawasaki Google+, Social Media, Editing, Technology, Communication
38. “Globalization, as defined by rich people like us, is a very nice thing. You are talking about the Internet, you are talking about cell phones, you are talking about computers. This doesn't affect two-thirds of the people of the world.” Jimmy Carter Globalization, Inequality, Technology, Society, Economy
40. “During the period of the Saturn-Apollo missions we were pilgrims in space, ranging from home in search of knowledge. Now we will become shepherds tending our technological flocks, but like the shepherds of old, we will keep our eyes fixed on the heavens.” Jimmy Carter Space, Exploration, Knowledge, Technology, Future
43. “We will only keep people from fleeing the countryside into urban favelas, villas miseries, shantytowns, and squatter villages when the productivity gap is closed between what brute labor on the soil can accomplish and what advanced technology makes possible today – and will make possible tomorrow.” Alvin Toffler Urbanization, Productivity, Labor, Technology, Development
