Quotes by Technology Man, he could sell. As he liked to say, he lived at the intersection of technology and liberal arts. But there was a more personal side of Steve Jobs, of course, and I was fortunate enough to see a bit of it because I spent hours in conversation with him over the 14 years he ran Apple. Walt Mossberg technologyjobsart I'm an enemy of what I call 'computer theology.' There's a class conflict out there. There's a techno-elite that lives in a different world. Walt Mossberg technologyclassenemy We call it EPCOT, spelled E-P-C-O-T: Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow. Here it is in larger scale. EPCOT will take its cue from the new ideas and new technologies that are now emerging from the creative centers of American industry. It will be a community of tomorrow that will never be completed, but will always be introducing and testing and demonstrating new materials and systems. And EPCOT will always be a showcase to the world for the ingenuity and imagination of American free enterprise. Walt Disney epcottechnologyideas You and I love understanding American Revolution, but let's also understand the digital revolution, because that makes us more comfortable with our technology. Walter Isaacson revolutiontechnologyunderstanding I'm in favor of any technology that makes my work available to the reading public at a reasonable price. Walter Jon Williams favorstechnologyreading Most of the collaborations of technology were done by teams...Collaboration is key to creativity Walter Isaacson creativitytechnologyteam I think the biggest innovations of the twenty-first century will be the intersection of biology and technology. A new era is beginning, just like the digital one was when I was his age. Walter Isaacson innovationtechnologythinking for Steve, less is always more, simpler is always better. Therefore, if you can build a glass box with fewer elements, it’s better, it’s simpler, and it’s at the forefront of technology. That’s where Steve likes to be, in both his products and his stores. Walter Isaacson elementsglassestechnology You cannot endow even the best machine with initiative; the jolliest steamroller will not plant flowers. Walter Lippmann technologyflowerinspire With technology expanding at this ridiculous pace, bit by bit we're losing our humanity and our ability to connect with each other without having electronic media in the middle. Walter Trout mediatechnologyhumanity The guy with the competitive advantage is the one with the best technology. Walter Wriston advantagetechnologyguy We became Homo sapiens not that long ago, from the scientific perspective, and we've retained a lot of our beast nature. We've done all these amazing things in terms of our knowledge base and technology, and now we're flying around and using the internet. But we're still very animalistic. So, I think about hierarchies. I think about evolution. I think about how we stack up, how we sit on top of each other. How we pray that we know what we're up to. Wangechi Mutu long-agotechnologythinking I don't believe [Africa] is ready to shift - and she needs to shift. So she needs to get the technology and she can only get that technology from the developed world. Wangari Maathai technologybelieveneeds The issue of climate change, it really does bring home the fact that we are on one planet, and that some of the impact of what human beings do in one corner of the world is going to affect people in a distant corner of the world. So we may still feel very far from each other, but we are really very close to each other because of the changes we have made with travel and technology and especially the information technology. Wangari Maathai impacttechnologyhome For me planting a tree is a very doable thing. It's not complicated, it doesn't require technology, it doesn't require much knowledge, but it can be a very important entry point into communities understanding how they destroy their own resources, but how they can also restore those resources, and not wait for their government or international agencies to come and help them. Wangari Maathai agencytechnologygovernment The issue of carbon is one area where we really need to work together and if people don't have the technology they need, that technology needs to be made available and affordable. Wangari Maathai issuestechnologypeople Yet now the industrialized world is moving away from fossil fuels and moving towards renewable sources of energy. And because we have not invested so much into education, we don't have the technology and sometimes we don't even have the capital to buy this technology. Wangari Maathai technologyenergymoving I think [GMO] is one area where the is a need for legal regulations to make sure that companies - because at the moment, companies are the ones that have this technology - will not use this technology in a way that could adversely affect the people. Wangari Maathai gmostechnologythinking You cannot blame the mismanagement of the economy or the fact that we have not invested adequately in education in order to give our people the knowledge, the skills and the technology that they need in order to be able to use the resources that Africa has to gain wealth Wangari Maathai technologyskillsorder Without husbands, women have to focus on earning more. They work longer hours, they're willing to relocate and they're more likely to choose higher-paying fields like technology. Warren Farrell technologyfocushusband«225226227228229230231232233234235»
