I think it's fair
to say that personal computers have become the most empowering tool we've ever
created. They're tools of communication, they're tools of creativity, and they
can be shaped by their user.
Bill Gates
Computers are
useless. They can only give you answers.
Pablo Picasso
Computers make it
easier to do a lot of things, but most of the things they make it easier to do
don't need to be done.
Andy Rooney
A computer once
beat me at chess, but it was no match for me at kick boxing.
Emo Philips
I think computer
viruses should count as life. I think it says something about human nature that
the only form of life we have created so far is purely destructive. We've
created life in our own image.
Stephen Hawking
Computers are like
Old Testament gods; lots of rules and no mercy.
Joseph Campbell
I do not fear
computers. I fear the lack of them.
Isaac Asimov
Computers are
magnificent tools for the realization of our dreams, but no machine can replace
the human spark of spirit, compassion, love, and understanding.
Louis Gerstner
Never trust a
computer you can't throw out a window.
Steve Wozniak
The real danger
is not that computers will begin to think like men, but that men will begin to
think like computers.
Sydney J. Harris
A wonderful thing
about a book, in contrast to a computer screen, is that you can take it to bed
with you.
Daniel J. Boorstin
Personally, I
rather look forward to a computer program winning the world chess championship.
Humanity needs a lesson in humility.
Richard Dawkins
Security is, I
would say, our top priority because for all the exciting things you will be
able to do with computers - organizing your lives, staying in touch with
people, being creative - if we don't solve these security problems, then people
will hold back.
Bill Gates
I am not the only
person who uses his computer mainly for the purpose of diddling with his
computer.
Dave Barry
The Internet:
transforming society and shaping the future through chat.
Dave Barry
Part of the
inhumanity of the computer is that, once it is competently programmed and
working smoothly, it is completely honest.
Isaac Asimov
Computers may
save time but they sure waste a lot of paper. About 98 percent of everything
printed out by a computer is garbage that no one ever reads.
Andy Rooney
Think? Why think!
We have computers to do that for us.
Jean Rostand
It's hardware
that makes a machine fast. It's software that makes a fast machine slow.
Craig Bruce
The computer is a
moron.
Peter Drucker
The new
information technology... Internet and e-mail... have practically eliminated
the physical costs of communications.
Peter Drucker
Home computers
are being called upon to perform many new functions, including the consumption
of homework formerly eaten by the dog.
Doug Larson
Treat your
password like your toothbrush. Don't let anybody else use it, and get a new one
every six months.
Clifford Stoll
The basis of
computer work is predicated on the idea that only the brain makes decisions and
only the index finger does the work.
Brian Eno
Computers are
famous for being able to do complicated things starting from simple programs.
Seth Lloyd
Computer science
is no more about computers than astronomy is about telescopes.
Edsger Dijkstra
Because I believe
that humans are computers, I conjectured that computers, like people, can have
left- and right-handed versions.
Philip Emeagwali
Shareware tends
to combine the worst of commercial software with the worst of free software.
Linus Torvalds
Many of our own
people here in this country do not ask about computers, telephones and
television sets. They ask - when will we get a road to our village.
Thabo Mbeki
In the practical
world of computing, it is rather uncommon that a program, once it performs
correctly and satisfactorily, remains unchanged forever.
Niklaus Wirth
I was afraid of
the internet... because I couldn't type.
Jack Welch
One of the most
feared expressions in modern times is 'The computer is down.'
Norman Ralph Augustine
To err is human -
and to blame it on a computer is even more so.
Robert Orben
What I was proud
of was that I used very few parts to build a computer that could actually speak
words on a screen and type words on a keyboard and run a programming language
that could play games. And I did all this myself.
Steve Wozniak
Man, I don't want
to have nothing to do with computers. I don't want the government in my business.
Erykah Badu
To err is human
but to really foul up requires a computer.
Dan Rather
Computers have
virtually replaced tape recorders.
Tony Visconti
I just became one
with my browser software.
Bill Griffith
You couldn't have
fed the '50s into a computer and come out with the '60s.
Paul Kantner
Nanotechnology
will let us build computers that are incredibly powerful. We'll have more power
in the volume of a sugar cube than exists in the entire world today.
Ralph Merkle
