Technology is a useful servant but a dangerous master.
Every once in a while, a new technology, an old problem, and a big idea turn into an innovation.
Technology has forever changed the world we live in. We're online, in one way or another, all day long. Our phones and computers have become reflections of our personalities, our interests, and our identities. They hold much that is important to us.
I used to do my best thinking while staring out airplane windows. The seat-back video system put a stop to that. Now I sit and watch old' Friends' and 'Everybody Loves Raymond' episodes. Walking is good, but here again, technology has interfered. I like to listen to iTunes while I walk home. I guess I don't think anymore.
Engineering or technology is all about using the power of science to make life better for people, to reduce cost, to improve comfort, to improve productivity, etc.
Even with all our technology and the inventions that make modern life so much easier than it once was, it takes just one big natural disaster to wipe all that away and remind us that, here on Earth, we're still at the mercy of nature.
Technology is cool, but you've got to use it as opposed to letting it use you.
What is design? It's where you stand with a foot in two worlds — the world of technology and the world of people and human purposes — and you try to bring the two together.
Technology is notorious for engrossing people so much that they don't always focus on balance and enjoy life at the same time.
For me, a good thriller must teach me something about the real world. Thrillers like 'Coma', 'The Hunt for Red October' and 'The Firm' all captivated me by providing glimpses into realms about which I knew very little — medical science, submarine technology and the law.
Social media is not about the exploitation of technology but service to community.
Riding a bicycle is the summit of human endeavour — an almost neutral environmental effect coupled with the ability to travel substantial distances without disturbing anybody. The bike is the perfect marriage of technology and human energy.
The 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.
America has the best doctors, the best nurses, the best hospitals, the best medical technology, the best medical breakthrough medicines in the world. There is absolutely no reason we should not have in this country the best health care in the world.
Science and technology are a propellant for building a thriving country, and the happiness of the people and the future of the country hinge on their development.
If that's there, I believe that technology will probably step up to their part of it.
Aliens didn't come down to Earth and give us technology. We invented it ourselves. Therefore it can never be alienating; it can only be an expression of our humanity.
What new technology does is create new opportunities to do a job that customers want done.
