Shirley MacLaine

As a species, we create tools to control our environment. What excites my imagination is wilderness: our materials' ability to escape our control.

James Arthur

Technology can be our best friend, and technology can also be the biggest party pooper of our lives. It interrupts our own story, interrupts our ability to have a thought or a daydream, to imagine something wonderful, because we're too busy bridging the walk from the cafeteria back to the office on the cell phone.

Steven Spielberg
