“Devices like iPhones and BlackBerries invite (demand!) constant use. They are like packets of cigarettes that ask us never to leave them alone or bottles of pills that seek to change our minds and punish us when we try to withdraw from them. We think cellphones are connecting us, but they are turning us into a society of rude, impatient, narrow-minded, stressed-out, aggressive, and isolated individuals. They invite reaction rather than reflection.”

“Music can trigger feelings, which in turn produce thoughts and images in our minds — it is these thoughts and images that can become novel solutions and innovative new ideas. Music is therefore directly related to the production of new ideas.”

“Οι βιβλιοθήκες είναι κάτι παραπάνω από νούμερα, πληροφορίες ή συλλογές. Οι βιβλιοθήκες είναι πιο πολύ χώροι που ενώνουν ανθρώπους και ιδέες στις τοπικές κοινωνίες. Είναι σημεία αναφοράς όπου οι άνθρωποι ανταλλάσουν γνώση, σοφία, σκέψεις και πάνω από όλα ανθρώπινη αξιοπρέπεια και αλληλεγγύη»”
