Douglas Adams
Anything that is in the world when you’re born is normal and ordinary and is just a natural part of the way the world works. Anything that’s invented between when you’re fifteen and thirty-five is new and exciting and revolutionary and you can probably get a career in it. Anything invented after you’re thirty-five is against the natural order of things.

“My fear is that these technologies are
infantilising the brain into the state of small
children who are attracted by buzzing
noises and bright lights, who have a
small attention span and who live for the
moment.” Prof. Susan Greenfield
