Efficient-market theorists will tell you that in a fully connected, real-time information environment, the only way to add value is to respond more quickly than anyone else to unpredictable events -- not to enshrine what you knew yesterday in code that you hope to keep running for months or years.

The Disney-ABC-Time-Warner-Microsoft machine -- exists only because we turn it on. If enough of us turn it off, it is gone. Think of it: It is in your power to plunge Bill Gates into poverty, to send Peter Jennings off to 'Good Morning, Saskatchewan,' to rid the world of Disney-licensed products, to see Martha Stewart and Jerry Springer reduced to talking only to each other. Disconnect now!

To exercise control over what happens to you as an individual, you must be involved with others in a process that decides what happens to you and your fellow citizens collectively. We can no longer separate the quality of personal life from the quality of social life. To preserve private space, we must also preserve the commons.

I don't see that it makes any point that someone in the Swedish academy just decides that this work is noble enough to receive a prize--I've already gotten the prize. The prize is the pleasure of finding a thing out, the kick in the discovery, the observation that other people use it--those are the real things. The honors are unreal to me. I don't believe in honors.

You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich. You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong. You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift. You cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer down. You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred. You cannot build character and courage by taking away people's initiative and independence. You cannot help people permanently by doing for them, what they could and should do for themselves.

Information technology must be viewed from an ecological perspective. Information systems do not stand alone; they effect and are affected by the operational environment. Understanding how information technology "fits" into the larger context is the key to its effective use.

Certainty is the currency of fundamentalism; but being unwilling to question what you believe isn't a strength, it's a weakness.

If the exploitation of others were all that mattered, evolution should never have got into the empathy business. But it did, and the political and economic elites had better grasp that in a hurry.
