Neil Postman
“the concept of truth is intimately linked to the biases of forms of expression. Truth does not, and never has, come unadorned. It must appear in its proper clothing or it is not acknowledged, which is a way of saying that the “truth” is a kind of cultural prejudice. Each culture conceives of it as being most authentically expressed in certain symbolic forms that another culture may regard as trivial or irrelevant.”
Neil Postman, Amusing Ourselves to Death: Public Discourse in the Age of Show Business

Jacob Bronowski
“The hand is the cutting edge of the mind. Civilisation is not a collection of finished artefacts, it is the elaboration of processes. In the end, the march of man is the refinement of the hand in action.”
Jacob Bronowski, The Ascent Of Man

Nicola Yoon
“I think all the good parts of us are connected on some level. The part that shares the last double chocolate chip cookie or donates to charity or gives a dollar to a street musician or becomes a candy striper or cries at Apple commercials or says I love you or I forgive you. I think that's God. God is the connection of the very best parts of us.”
Nicola Yoon, The Sun Is Also a Star

Jacob Bronowski
“what we call cultural evolution is essentially a constant growing and widening of the human imagination.”
Jacob Bronowski, The Ascent Of Man
