Nicholas G. Carr: Citations en anglais

“Hardly a dollar or a euro changes hands anymore without the aid of computer systems.”

Why IT Doesn't Matter Anymore http://hbswk.hbs.edu/archive/3520.html, Harvard Business Review, June 9, 2003.
Contexte: Today, no one would dispute that information technology has become the backbone of commerce. It underpins the operations of individual companies, ties together far-flung supply chains, and, increasingly, links businesses to the customers they serve. Hardly a dollar or a euro changes hands anymore without the aid of computer systems.

“If we lose those quiet spaces, or fill them up with 'content,' we will sacrifice something important not only in our selves but in our culture.”

Is Google Making us Stupid in The Atlantic, July 2008.
Contexte: The kind of deep reading that a sequence of printed pages promotes is valuable not just for the knowledge we acquire from the author's words but for the intellectual vibrations those words set off within our own minds. In the quiet spaces opened up by the sustained, undistracted reading of a book, or by any other act of contemplation, for that matter, we make our own associations, draw our own inferences and analogies, foster our own ideas…. If we lose those quiet spaces, or fill them up with 'content,' we will sacrifice something important not only in our selves but in our culture.

“We become, neurologically, what we think."(33)”

“Worrying about what might go wrong may not be as glamorous a job as speculating about the future, but it is a more essential job right now.”
