“أدوات مثل تويتر وفيسبوك «تمنح حق الكلام لفيالق من الحمقى، ممن كانوا يتكلمون في البارات فقط بعد تناول كأس من النبيذ، دون أن يتسببوا بأي ضرر للمجتمع، وكان يتم إسكاتهم فوراً. أما الآن فلهم الحق بالكلام مثلهم مثل من يحمل جائزة نوبل. إنه غزو البلهاء».”
― أمبرتو إيكو

“The problem of modern man is no longer so much how he can live with gods and demons, but how he can survive with the bomb, revolution and the destruction of the balance of nature. He usurps more and more of nature and takes it under his control. The vital question for him, therefore, is how this world which he has usurped can be human- ized.36 His main problem is no longer the universal finitude which he experiences in solidarity with all other creatures, but the humanity of his own world.”
― Jürgen Moltmann, The Crucified God: The Cross of Christ As the Foundation and Criticism of Christian Theology
