Quotes by Steven Poole  (?)

“The virtue it makes of its deliberately limited online component is a superb riposte to the current unthinking desperation to make everything “social” in a Twitface sense. (I recently read an article wondering how we could make books “more social”. Seriously, shut up: books have always been social.) And perhaps the most interesting aspect of Journey’s reception has been the sheer quantity of writing it has inspired, thus refuting again the mainstream prejudice that videogames and literacy are opposed.”
Steven Poole, Trigger Happy 2.0: The Art and Politics of Videogames

“În definitiv, să nu uităm ce spunea Sherlock Holmes:"Când ai eliminat imposibilul, orice rămâne, oricât de imposibil ar părea, trebuie să fie adevărul". Deși, judecând după ferocitatea cu care un alt eminent filozof modern a fost atacat de criticii săi, n-ai bănui asta.”
Steven Poole , Rethink: The Surprising History of New Ideas

“[...] așa cum grânele noi ies din pământurile vechi, la fel și "toată această nouă știință" pe care oamenii o învață apare tot din bătrânele hârțoage. Geoffrey Chaucer,1380, "Parlament al păsărilor”
