Anne Carson
“Philosophers say man forms himself in dialogue.”
Anne Carson, The Beauty of the Husband: A Fictional Essay in 29 Tangos

Cory Doctorow
“Conversation is king. Content is just something to talk about.”
Cory Doctorow

“What’s not so great is that all this technology is destroying our social skills. Not only have we given up on writing letters to each other, we barely even talk to each other. People have become so accustomed to texting that they’re actually startled when the phone rings. It’s like we suddenly all have Batphones. If it rings, there must be danger.

Now we answer, “What happened? Is someone tied up in the old sawmill?”

“No, it’s Becky. I just called to say hi.”

“Well you scared me half to death. You can’t just pick up the phone and try to talk to me like that. Don’t the tips of your fingers work?”
Ellen DeGeneres, Seriously... I'm Kidding

Aravind Adiga
“Neither you nor I speak English, but there are some things that can be said only in English.”
Aravind Adiga, The White Tiger

Lawrence Clark Powell
“We are the children of a technological age. We have found streamlined ways of doing much of our routine work. Printing is no longer the only way of reproducing books. Reading them, however, has not changed.”
Lawrence Clark Powell
