“Mathematics says the sum value of a network increases as the square of the number of members. In other words, as the number of nodes in a network increases arithmetically, the value of the network increases exponentially. Adding a few more members can dramatically increase the value of the network.”

Kevin Kelly (1952) American author and editor

Out of Control: The New Biology of Machines, Social Systems and the Economic World (1995), New Rules for the New Economy: 10 Radical Strategies for a Connected World (1999)

“There is a multilayering of global networks in the key strategic activities that structure and destructure the planet. When these multilayered networks overlap in some node, when there is a node that belongs to different networks, two major consequences follow. First, economies of synergy between these different networks take place in that node: between financial markets and media businesses; or between academic research and technology development and innovation; between politics and media.”

Manuel Castells (1942) Spanish sociologist (b.1942)

The Rise of the Network Society, 1996

“The major things we saw wrong with Unix when we started talking about what would become Plan 9, back around 1985, all stemmed from the appearance of a network. As a stand-alone system, Unix was pretty good. But when you networked Unix machines together, you got a network of stand-alone systems instead of a seamless, integrated networked system. Instead of one big file system, one user community, one secure setup uniting your network of machines, you had a hodgepodge of workarounds to Unix's fundamental design decision that each machine is self-sufficient.”

“The activity of writing, then, is not to be distinguished from the activity of self-exploration. It consists in contemplating the sea of internal images, discerning connections, and setting these out in grammatical sentences (“I could never conceive of a network of meaning too complex to be expressed in a series of grammatical sentences,” says Murnane, whose views on grammar are firm, even pedantic.)”

J.M. Coetzee (1940) South African writer

“If you do not care about networks, the networks will care about you, anyway. For as long as you want to live in society, at this time and in this place, you will have to deal with the network society.
Because we live in the Internet Galaxy.”

“A network nurtures small failures in order that large failures don't happen as often.”

“If your work reflects not only your technical skills, but also who you are and more importantly what you have to say, then it will do the talking in your stead. I agree that networking and meeting people is very important, but a foot in the door doesn’t always stop it closing.”

John Howe (illustrator) (1957) Canadian illustrator

In the Artist's Studio interview (2010)

“Sometimes people stop me in the street and ask me eef I am Harry Belafonte. When I say no, they get mad and walk away.”

Roberto Clemente (1934–1972) Puerto Rican baseball player

As quoted in "Clemente Keeps Them On Their Toes" by Larry Klein, in Sport (October 1960), p. 96 <br class="br">Comment: While they may have been the first, Pittsburghers were clearly not the last to perceive this likeness. On August 18, 1973 (the day Clemente would've turned 39), Belafonte was pegged by Screen Gems (producers of Brian's Song) to star in what would prove to be but the first of several planned but never realized Clemente biopics. https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=zCAsAAAAIBAJ&sjid=850FAAAAIBAJ&pg=3049%2C4375173&dq=screen-gems-made-for-tv-film-roberto-clemente-harry-belafonte <br class="br">Other, <big><big>1960s</big></big>, <big>1960</big>

“A Streptichron (from the Classical Greek meaning to 'bend time') is an active packet facilitating prediction that implements any of the active mechanisms… The Streptichron can use this capability to refine its prediction as it travels through the network.”

“Others have centered their activity within their specialty, forming groups within existing organizations and institutions, exposing their co-workers to new ideas, often calling on the larger network for support, feedback, back-up information.”

Marilyn Ferguson (1938–2008) American writer

The Aquarian Conspiracy (1980), Chapter One, The Conspiracy

“I am often asked when can you stop networking. I would say never – networking should be a lifelong activity.”
