Neil Postman
“Lippmann, for example, wrote in 1920: “There can be no liberty for a community which lacks the means by which to detect lies.”
Neil Postman, Amusing Ourselves to Death: Public Discourse in the Age of Show Business

Laszlo Bock
“Having workers meet the people they are helping is the greatest motivator, even if they only meet for a few minutes. It imbues one’s work with a significance that transcends careerism or money.”
Laszlo Bock, Work Rules!: Insights from Inside Google That Will Transform How You Live and Lead

Neil Postman
“Until, years from now, when it will be noticed that the massive collection and speed-of-light retrieval of data have been of great value to large-scale organizations but have solved very little of importance to most people and have created at least as many problems for them as they may have solved.”
Neil Postman

Tyler Cowen
“But once again, there is some disappointing news, as the income of the median or typical American household is down since 2000, and unless wage gains are very strong in the next few years, this country essentially will have gone twenty years with wage stagnation or near wage stagnation for median earners.”
Tyler Cowen, The Complacent Class: The Self-Defeating Quest for the American Dream

Mihály Csíkszentmihályi
“When people start believing that progress is inevitable and life easy, they may quickly lose courage and determination in the face of the first signs of adversity.”
Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, Flow: The Psychology of Optimal Experience
