Technology is us. There is no separation. It's a pure expression of human creative will. It doesn't exist anywhere else in the universe. I'm rather sure of that.

Generally what people tend to underestimate is the cyborg nature of Groupon. We are a company that has the DNA of being both a technology company and a heavily operational company.

I don't find the technology threatening. A lot of people my age my generation find it difficult to immerse themselves. But I would never preclude the idea of using any technology if I thought it suited the end result.

If we allow our self-congratulatory adoration of technology to distract us from our own contact with each other then somehow the original agenda has been lost.

Lucky individuals in each generation find technology appropriate to their needs.

I believe that we were not as effective in the second term dealing with this issue of nuclear none proliferation as we had been during the first term when we stripped Libya and Iraq and A.Q. Khan and their capacity to proliferate nuclear technology.

Today's stock market actually hates technology as shown by all-time low price/earnings ratios for major public technology companies.

Civilization advances by extending the number of important operations which we can perform without thinking of them.

A wisely chosen illustration is almost essential to fasten the truth upon the ordinary mind and no teacher can afford to neglect this part of his preparation.

I think eventually I want to become a teacher like my father wanted to be and hopefully positively influence the next generation.

My physics teacher Thomas Miner was particularly gifted. To this day I remember how he introduced the subject of physics. He told us we were going to learn how to deal with very simple questions such as how a body falls due to the acceleration of gravity.

As a teacher as a propagandist Mr. Shaw is no good at all even in his own generation. But as a personality he is immortal.

The five steps in teaching an employee new skills are preparation explanation showing observation and supervision.

I have learned silence from the talkative toleration from the intolerant and kindness from the unkind yet strange I am ungrateful to those teachers.

There's a certain amount of sympathy here for the Bush administration's problem which is they would like to get rid of Saddam Hussein and they would like to have the Kurds autonomous.

Because I select my players from a feeling that comes to me when I am with them a certain sympathy you might call it or a vibration that exists between us that convinces me they are right.

If you come into success too soon you'll burn out and be finished before you know it. If you let the maturation process happen naturally you'll be happier with yourself in the end.

People repeat behaviour that leads to flooding their brains with pleasurable chemicals. The short-term reward loop acts over hours to years and the long-term reproductive success loop over generations.

I believe success is preparation because opportunity is going to knock on your door sooner or later but are you prepared to answer that?

The most absurd and reckless aspirations have sometimes led to extraordinary success.

Success is like a liberation or the first phrase of a love story.

Honesty is the most single most important factor having a direct bearing on the final success of an individual corporation or product.

The only true measure of success is the ratio between what we might have done and what we might have been on the one hand and the thing we have made and the things we have made of ourselves on the other.
