How glorious a greeting the sun gives the mountains!
John MuirWhat really turns me on about technology is not just the ability to get more songs on MP3 players. The revolution – this revolution – is much bigger than that. I hope, I believe. What turns me on about the digital age, what excites me personally, is that you have closed the gap between dreaming and doing.
BonoI’m crepuscular.
Christopher HitchensWhat I’m trying to do is, is to make a significant difference in space flight. And help make space flight accessible to almost anyone.
Elon MuskAs everything becomes digitized, there’s the idea that things that can’t be digitized become more valuable.
David ByrneThere’s no other company that could make a MacBook Air and the reason is that not only do we control the hardware, but we control the operating system. And it is the intimate interaction between the operating system and the hardware that allows us to do that. There is no intimate interaction between Windows and a Dell notebook.
Steve JobsWalking is man’s best medicine.
HippocratesThe method of nature: who could ever analyze it?
Ralph Waldo EmersonThe United States tyrannizes and pillages the globalized world with its political, economic, technological, and military might.
Fidel CastroHonestly, I think we should be delighted people still want to read, be it on a Kindle or a Nook or whatever the latest device is.
J. K. RowlingI give the name of cosmic sense to the more or less confused affinity that binds us psychologically to the All which envelops us. The existence of this feeling is indubitable, and apparently as old as the beginning of thought… The cosmic sense must have been born as soon as man found himself facing the forest, the sea and the stars.
Pierre Teilhard de ChardinAs I’m traveling around, I meet many small children. And when I look at a small and think how we’ve harmed this beautiful planet since I was that age, I feel a kind of desperation, anger, shame. I don’t know what I feel; I just don’t know what the emotion is.
Jane GoodallWorking conditions for me have always been those of the monastic life: solitude and frugality. Except for frugality, they are contrary to my nature, so much so that work is a violence I do to myself.
Albert CamusE-governance is easy governance, effective governance, and also economic governance. E-governance paves the way for good governance.
Narendra ModiWhether it’s Google or Apple or free software, we’ve got some fantastic competitors and it keeps us on our toes.
Bill GatesLike music and art, love of nature is a common language that can transcend political or social boundaries.
Jimmy CarterSuffering by nature or chance never seems so painful as suffering inflicted on us by the arbitrary will of another.
Arthur SchopenhauerFear, separation, hate and anger come from the wrong view that you and the Earth are two separate entities, the Earth is only the environment. You are in the centre and you want to do something for the Earth in order for you to survive. That is a dualistic way of seeing.
Thich Nhat HanhNo matter what engineering field you’re in, you learn the same basic science and mathematics. And then maybe you learn a little bit about how to apply it.
Noam ChomskyIn the beginning of the year 1665, I found the method of approximating series and the rule for reducing any dignity of any binomial into such a series.
Isaac NewtonThe computer can’t tell you the emotional story. It can give you the exact mathematical design, but what’s missing is the eyebrows.
Frank ZappaI don’t believe in an outside agent that creates the world, then walks away. But I feel very strongly there is an intelligence at work in every flower, in every blade of grass, in every cell of my body. And it is that intelligence that, I wouldn’t say created the universe. It is creating the universe. It’s an ongoing process.
Eckhart TolleThe woods are lovely, dark and deep. But I have promises to keep, and miles to go before I sleep.
Robert FrostI pay attention to politics and technology.
Nipsey HussleScience may have found a cure for most evils; but it has found no remedy for the worst of them all – the apathy of human beings.
Helen KellerIf that’s there, I believe that technology will probably step up to their part of it.
Neil ArmstrongShall I not have intelligence with the earth? Am I not partly leaves and vegetable mould myself.

John MuirPeople everywhere love Windows.
Bill GatesI love the natural world – it comes from my culture, which grew out of a people enslaved.
Alice WalkerEven more amazing than modern technology is our opportunity to access information directly from Heaven, without hardware, software, or monthly service fees.
Russell M. NelsonIf a man walks in the woods for love of them half of each day, he is in danger of being regarded as a loafer. But if he spends his days as a speculator, shearing off those woods and making the earth bald before her time, he is deemed an industrious and enterprising citizen.
Henry David ThoreauYou’ll see more and more perfection of that – computer as servant. But the next thing is going to be computer as a guide or agent.
Steve JobsOur task must be to free ourselves by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature and its beauty.
Albert EinsteinOne of my big regrets is that Facebook hasn’t had a major chance to shape the mobile operating system ecosystem.
Mark ZuckerbergThere is no heaven or afterlife for broken-down computers; that is a fairy story for people afraid of the dark.
Stephen HawkingThat the divided but contiguous particles of bodies may be separated from one another is a matter of observation; and, in the particles that remain undivided, our minds are able to distinguish yet lesser parts, as is mathematically demonstrated.
Isaac NewtonI feel very strongly that SpaceX would not have been able to get started, nor would we have made the progress that we have, without the help of NASA.
Elon MuskThe advance of technology is based on making it fit in so that you don’t really even notice it, so it’s part of everyday life.
Bill GatesEvery particular in nature, a leaf, a drop, a crystal, a moment of time is related to the whole, and partakes of the perfection of the whole.
Ralph Waldo EmersonPeople don’t want lots and lots of single purpose devices. They do not want to have to learn how to set up something for photos, another thing for music, another thing for video.
Bill GatesI think it pisses God off if you walk by the color purple in a field somewhere and don’t notice it.
Alice WalkerSpeed, it seems to me, provides the one genuinely modern pleasure.
Aldous HuxleyI wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life, to live so sturdily and Spartanlike as to put to rout all that was not life.
Henry David ThoreauI got to Africa. I got the opportunity to go and learn, not about any animal, but chimpanzees. I was living in my dream world, the forest in Gombe National Park in Tanzania. It was Tanganyika when I began.
Jane GoodallWhat we call Man’s power over Nature turns out to be a power exercised by some men over other men with Nature as its instrument.
C. S. LewisIt’s just a job. Grass grows, birds fly, waves pound the sand. I beat people up.
Muhammad AliTrees go wandering forth in all directions with every wind, going and coming like ourselves, traveling with us around the sun two million miles a day, and through space heaven knows how fast and far!
John MuirRockets are cool. There’s no getting around that.
Elon MuskWhen California was wild, it was the floweriest part of the continent.
John MuirNature is full of genius, full of the divinity; so that not a snowflake escapes its fashioning hand.
Henry David ThoreauMan is still the most extraordinary computer of all.
John F. KennedyLet me recommend the best medicine in the world: a long journey, at a mild season, through a pleasant country, in easy stages.
James MadisonWe’re going to be able to ask our computers to monitor things for us, and when certain conditions happen, are triggered, the computers will take certain actions and inform us after the fact.
Steve JobsI just think people have a lot of fiction. But, you know, I mean, the real story of Facebook is just that we’ve worked so hard for all this time. I mean, the real story is actually probably pretty boring, right? I mean, we just sat at our computers for six years and coded.
Mark ZuckerbergExtinction is the rule. Survival is the exception.
Carl SaganEvery once in a while, I get mad. ‚The Lorax‘ came out of my being angry. The ecology books I’d read were dull… In ‚The Lorax,‘ I was out to attack what I think are evil things and let the chips fall where they might.
Dr. SeussEverything in excess is opposed to nature.
HippocratesComputers themselves, and software yet to be developed, will revolutionize the way we learn.
Steve Jobs
