Quotes by Technology I grew up in the 70s, when people talked on the phone - and just talked more. I remember the phone was the epicenter of our house. I spent hours every evening as a teenager waiting for the phone to ring and talking to my friends. Before the age of technology, it was also easier to just disappear from the face of the earth. Jennifer Egan teenagertechnologypeople America needs to be able to be energy-independent, and the electric vehicle, the battery technology is one way of getting there. Jennifer Granholm electric-vehiclesindependenttechnology Government is supposed to be about how we do things together, and we can do that much more together if we use technology smartly right now. Jennifer Pahlka technologygovernmenttogether We're in a time now where technology is such that we can create anything, and that's what's new about television and film these days. Jennifer Morrison filmtechnologytelevision I write fiction longhand. That's not so much about rejecting technology as being unable to write fiction on a computer for some reason. I don't think I would write it on a typewriter either. I write in a very blind gut instinctive way. It just doesn't feel right. There's a physical connection. And then in nonfiction that's not the case at all. I can't even imagine writing nonfiction by hand. Jennifer Egan technologywritingthinking Technology evolves so much faster than wisdom. Jennifer Stone fastertechnologyevolve As the medieval mind blamed God for human suffering, so the modern mind blames 'the system' for the industrial blight and plague of technology. Jennifer Stone technologysufferingmind I do know a lot about Scientology. And I know about the practices. I know all about what the technology is and all that kind of stuff. It's very helpful. Jennifer Lopez technologypracticestuff NEEMO missions are a challenging and exciting aspect of astronaut training. The research we conduct during those missions allows us to test new technologies and exploration concepts in conditions similar to the ones we'll experience in space. They are a great opportunity to help me expand my knowledge and develop new tools for future space exploration. Jeremy Hansen technologyspaceopportunity I realize that the 2020s are going to be completely different than this decade has been. There's going to be rapid progress. One of the most important aspects is going to be cheaper access to space. It changes everything. We have the ideas and the technology to do a lot of things, but we're limited financially, so, by reducing the cost of access to space, the whole problem is changed. Ultimately, the pieces that are coming together are going to allow us to send humans to Mars - and bring them back. Jeremy Hansen progresstechnologyimportant We need a change in consciousness to go with this technology platform. We need a new narrative: we need to shift from geopolitics to biosphere consciousness in one generation. The biosphere is understood here as what goes from the biosphere to the depths of the ocean 40 miles where all living beings interact with all chemicals to create a very complex choreography that we call "life on earth". That is biosphere that is our indivisible community. Jeremy Rifkin technologycommunityocean We are already producing enough food to feed the world. We already have technology in place that allows us to produce more than we can find a market for. Jeremy Rifkin technologyenoughworld We're creating multiple personas. We're creating a thespian sense of personality where we see ourselves as works of art, and we see everything in our environment as a prop, as a set, as a stage, as a backdrop for filling ourselves in. We don't see ourselves as ever completed. We are in-formation. Jeremy Rifkin creatingtechnologyart About every year or two, there is a moment of truth where there's some new development in the marketplace, some new technology, some sort of existential crisis. You just have to be vigilant about looking out for those moments. Jeremy Stoppelman technologytwoyears I wanted to make sure that this be the first scientific and technology revolution in history in which the public thoroughly discussed all the potential benefits and all the potential harms, in advance of the technology coming online and running its course. Jeremy Rifkin romancetechnologyrunning What the public needs to understand is that these new technologies, especially in recombinant DNA technology, allow scientists to bypass biological boundaries altogether. Jeremy Rifkin technologydnaneeds What makes the IoT a disruptive technology in the way we organize economic life is that it helps humanity reintegrate itself into the complex choreography of the biosphere, and by doing so, dramatically increases productivity without compromising the ecological relationships that govern the planet. Jeremy Rifkin technologyhumanityway Getting an education at MIT is like taking a drink from a fire hose. Jerome Wiesner icttechnologyfire I like computers. I like the Internet. It's a tool that can be used. But don't be misled into thinking that these technologies are anything other than aspects of a degenerate economic system. Jerry Brown technologytoolsthinking If you say the world is totally dependent on oil in many parts of the world, coal and certainly natural gas, we are fossil fuel, that is modernity, modernity has two elements: individualism and oil. Now to move toward a more enlightened sustainable world, we have to transform with lots of technology, with even differences in the way we see the world and how we live in the world. That`s going to take decades. Jerry Brown technologytwomoving«101102103104105106107108109110111»
