Nature cannot be fooled.Richard P . Feynman

For my confirmation, I didn't get a watch and my first pair of long pants, like mostLutheran boys. I got a telescope. My mother thought it would make the best gift.

Wernher von Braun

Gates is the ultimate programming machine. He believes everything can be defined,examined, reduced to essentials, and rearranged into a logical sequence that will

achieve a particular goal.

Stewart Alsop

Getting information off the Internet is like taking a drink from a fire hydrant.

Mitchell Kapor

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 aboutcomputers. This doesn't affect two-thirds of the people of the world.

Jimmy Carter

Humanity is acquiring all the right technology for all the wrong reasons.

R . Buckminster Fuller

Albert Einstein

While the rest of the world has been improving technology, Ghana has beenimproving the quality of man's humanity to man.

Maya Angelou

With our technology, with objects, literally three people in a garage can blow away

what 200 people at Microsoft can do. Literally can blow it away. Corporate Americahas a need that is so huge and can save them so much money, or make them so

much money, or cost them so much money if they miss it, that they are going to fuelthe object revolution.

Steve Jobs

So let's not use a stylus. We're going to use the best pointing device in the world.

We're going to use a pointing device that we're all born with - born with ten of them.We're going to use our fingers. We're going to touch this with our fingers. And we

have invented a new technology called multi-touch, which is phenomenal. It workslike magic.

Steve Jobs

The over-all point is that new technology will not necessarily replace old technology,

but it will date it. By definition. Eventually, it will replace it. But it's like people whohad black-and-white TVs when color came out. They eventually decided whether or

3/4

not the new technology was worth the investment.Steve Jobs

I think it's brought the world a lot closer together, and will continue to do that. Thereare downsides to everything; there are unintended consequences to everything. The

most corrosive piece of technology that I've ever seen is called television - but then,

again, television, at its best, is magnificent.Steve Jobs

I'm sorry, it's true. Having children really changes your view on these things. We'reborn, we live for a brief instant, and we die. It's been happening for a long time.

Technology is not changing it much - if at all.

Steve Jobs

Technology is nothing. What's important is that you have a faith in people, that

they're basically good and smart, and if you give them tools, they'll do wonderful

things with them.

Steve Jobs

I've always wanted to own and control the primary technology in everything we do.

Steve Jobs

It's not a faith in technology. It's faith in people.

Steve Jobs

Information technology and business are becoming inextricably interwoven. I don'tthink anybody can talk meaningfully about one without the talking about the other.

Bill Gates

Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.

Arthur C . Clarke

Saddam Hussein has been engaged in the development of weapons of massdestruction technology which is a threat to countries in the region and he has made

a mockery of the weapons inspection process.

Nancy Pelosi

Capitalist production, therefore, develops technology, and the combining together ofvarious processes into a social whole, only by sapping the original sources of all

wealth - the soil and the labourer.Karl Marx

The first rule of any technology used in a business is that automation applied to anefficient operation will magnify the efficiency. The second is that automation applied

to an inefficient operation will magnify the inefficiency.Bill Gates

If GM had kept up with technology like the computer industry has, we would all bedriving $25 cars that got 1000 MPG.

Bill Gates

4/4

Technology is just a tool. In terms of getting the kids working together andmotivating them, the teacher is the most important.

Bill Gates

We have also arranged things so that almost no one understands science and

technology. This is a prescription for disaster. We might get away with it for a while,

but sooner or later this combustible mixture of ignorance and power is going to blowup in our faces.Carl Sagan

We live in a society exquisitely dependent on science and technology, in which hardly

anyone knows anything about science and technology.

Carl Sagan

We've arranged a civilization in which most crucial elements profoundly depend on

science and technology.
