People try to treat technology as an object and it can't be. It can only be a channel.

What the public needs to understand is that these new technologies especially in recombinant DNA technology allow scientists to bypass biological boundaries altogether.

There was a time when nails were high-tech. There was a time when people had to be told how to use a telephone. Technology is just a tool. People use tools to improve their lives.

We live in a media world simultaneously obsessed with technology and personality.

Technology has a shadow side. It accounts for real progress in medicine but has also hurt it in many ways making it more impersonal expensive and dangerous. The false belief that a safety net of sophisticated drugs and machines stretches below us permitting risky or lazy lifestyle choices has undermined our spirit of self-reliance.

The number one benefit of information technology is that it empowers people to do what they want to do. It lets people be creative. It lets people be productive. It lets people learn things they didn't think they could learn before and so in a sense it is all about potential.

If you think technology can solve your security problems then you don't understand the problems and you don't understand the technology.

The computer offers another kind of creativity. You cannot ignore the creativity that computer technology can bring. But you need to be able to move between those two different worlds.

I understood the importance in principle of public key cryptography but it's all moved much faster than I expected. I did not expect it to be a mainstay of advanced communications technology.

I was one of the first authors to have an active website. I'm totally obsessed with technology. I'm always looking for ways to connect with my readers. I answer all my fan mail.

Technology has allowed us to have more drought-resistant crops. The spotty nature of drought the spotty nature of rains can sometimes result in better yields than anticipated.

For the last 10 years I've felt increasing pressure to stop shooting film and start shooting video but I've never understood why. It's cheaper to work on film it's far better looking it's the technology that's been known and understood for a hundred years and it's extremely reliable.

But in each case as a filmmaker who's been given sizable budgets with which to work I feel a responsibility to the audience to be shooting with the absolute highest quality technology that I can and make the film in a way that I want.

I love the idea of anthropomorphizing machines. I love the idea of taking technology and giving it a personality.

New ideas in technology are literally a dime-a-dozen or cheaper than that.

In some cases inventions prohibit innovation because we're so caught up in playing with the technology we forget about the fact that it was supposed to be important.

Creative people are notoriously the slowest to adopt new technology.

I'm very into science-fantasy that kind of swordfights and magic and technology thing.

In a way film and television are in the same sort of traumatic trance that print journalism is. The technology has outpaced our comprehension of its implications.

Lucky individuals in each generation find technology appropriate to their needs.

In the industrial revolution Britain led the world in advances that enabled mass production: trade exchanges transportation factory technology and new skills needed for the new industrialised world.

Product management really is the fusion between technology what engineers do - and the business side.

Really in technology it's about the people getting the best people retaining them nurturing a creative environment and helping to find a way to innovate.

The great growling engine of change - technology.
