I dont care how big and fast computers are, theyre not as big and fast as the world. – Herbert Simon

Most of us really arent horribly unique. There are 6 billion of us. Put em all in one room and very few would stand out as individuals. So maybe we ought to think of worth in terms of our ability to get along as a part of nature, rather than being the lords over nature. – Herbert Simon
There are no morals about technology at all. Technology expands our ways of thinking about things, expands our ways of doing things. If were bad people we use technology for bad purposes and if were good people we use it for good purposes. – Herbert Simon
