  • Information Quote #2

    [It would not be long] ere the whole surface of this country would be channelled for those nerves which are to diffuse, with the speed of thought, a knowledge of all that is occurring throughout the land, making, in fact, one neighborhood of the whole country.

    Samuel Morse
  • Information Quote #3

    Krzysztof Kieslowski
  • Information Quote #4

    [W]hen a message is squeezed through a twenty-second news spot, so much can be lost that what is left will fail to move anyone enough to make them turn off the set and actually do something. Meanwhile, the viewers will believe that they have learned everything they need to know on that subject and will be bored the next time they hear it.

    Jerry Mander

  • Information Quote #8

    A computer cannot manufacture new information. That's the difference between our brain and a computer.

    Chris Prentiss
  • Information Quote #9

    A file on a hard disk does indeed contain information of the kind that objectively exists. The fact that the bits are discernible instead of being scrambled into mush - the way heat scrambles things - is what makes them bits.

    But if the bits can potentially mean something to someone, they can only do so if they are experienced. When that happens, a commonality of culture is enacted between the storer and the retriever of the bits. Experience is the only process that can de-alienate information.

    Information of the kind that purportedly wants to be free is nothing but a shadow of our own minds, and wants nothing on its own. It will not suffer if it doesn't get what it wants.

    But if you want to make the transition from the old religion, where you hope God will give you an afterlife, to the new religion, where you hope to become immortal by getting uploaded into a computer, then you have to believe information is real and alive. So for you, it will be important to redesign human institutions like art, the economy, and the law to reinforce the perception that information is alive. You demand that the rest of us live in your new conception of a state religion. You need us to deify information to reinforce your faith.

    A pet rock is a serious commitment and too much responsibility for a ten year old to handle on his own

    Kyle Adams
  • Information Quote #11

    A piece of information can change a person. I'd hate to change the way I'm supposed to live the future.

    Samantha Young
  • Information Quote #12

    A primary reason that people believe that life is getting worse is because our information about the problems of the world has steadily improved. If there is a battle today somewhere on the planet, we experience it almost as if we were there. During
    World War II, tens of thousands of people might perish in a battle, and if the public could see it at all it was in a grainy newsreel in a movie theater weeks later. During World War I a small elite could read about the progress of the conflict in the newspaper
    (without pictures). During the nineteenth century there was almost no access to news in a timely fashion for anyone.

    Ray Kurzweil
  • Information Quote #13

    A surfeit of information often hides an untruth,” he said, with annoying clarity.

    Jasper Fforde
  • Information Quote #14

    A true leader leads for the sake of love and his knowledge of the path, a bad leader redirects his followers to the path of destruction.

    Michael Bassey Johnson
  • Information Quote #15

    Accessibility to information never been so advanced and easy in entire human history as it is now and we have no excuse for ignorance.

    Baris Gencel
  • Information Quote #16

    Acquiring of wisdom is a function of inquisitiveness for information and keenness for learning. Plenty of resource and the gravity of flow will ensure a momentum good enough for learning.

    Priyavrat Thareja
  • Information Quote #17

    Advertisement shouldn’t look like information, it should look like a promise.

    Amit Kalantri
  • Information Quote #18

    Jean Baudrillard
  • Information Quote #19

    Anyone implementing the information in this short book can have their name posted and shared all over the world.

    Ken Poirot
  • Information Quote #20

    Anything I run across can light up the circuitry of my brain, and set me on an adventure. To research strains of yeast; hiccup fetishists; the proper use of inverse, obverse, converse and reverse; the ratio of main narrative to tangent, of forward action to aside. What else do we do but quest, pursue meaning in the information wash? Where does that storm sewer opening from the river into the city’s underneath go to, anyhow? I grab a headlamp and head in. It’s long and low and dark and stinks and extends for miles. Underneath the city is another city. The one above begins to disappear. That’s what we’re after, isn’t it? To disappear? To venture into darkness, to let what we know or think we know recede for an hour, a day, a novel’s length, and see what meaning can be made of what remains?

    Ander Monson

    Dan Brown

    Auf jeden Fall ist der Calvinismus die Ursache für die seltsame Unruhe, die viele von uns befällt, sobald wir aufhören, etwas Nützliches zu tun. Johannes Calvin ist schuld, dass wir nicht mehr ohne schlechtes Gewissen am Strand herumliegen können.

    Because you're always learning, the chief lesson remains: you still know nothing.

    Criss Jami
  • Information Quote #26

    Before the NSA there was the Catholic Church. What is confessional if not a place to gather secrets? No wonder the church had all the power.

    Jarod Kintz
  • Information Quote #27

    Behind every beautiful thing, there's some kind of pain.

    Bob Dylan
  • Information Quote #28

    Books deliver information so that experience has a chance to exercise creativity.

    Richard Diaz

    Bridges take people across rivers. Leaders take people across ignorance. With a leader, the destination of a journey is sure.

    Israelmore Ayivor
