BEAUTIFUL TECHNOLOGY MAKES LIFE MORE BEAUTIFUL NOW

The technology keeps moving forward, which makes it easier for the artists to tell their stories and paint the pictures they want.

-- George Lucas

These days the technology can solve our problems and then some. Solutions may not only erase physical or mental deficits but leave patients better off than 'able-bodied' folks. The person who has a disability today may have a superability tomorrow.

-- Daniel H. Wilson

Our technology, our machines, are part of our humanity. We created them to extend ourselves, and that is what is unique about human beings.

-- Ray Kurzweil

The art challenges the technology, and the technology inspires the art.

-- John Lasseter (Director)

Thanks to modern technology, we now can deliver every text in every research library to every citizen in our country, and to everyone in the world. If we fail to do so, we are not living up to our civic duty.

-- Robert Darnton

Technology is teaching us to be human again.

-- Simon Mainwaring

Science and technology revolutionize our lives, but memory, tradition and myth frame our response.

-- Arthur M. Schlesinger
