Famous quotes containing the word information:

    “When action grows unprofitable, gather information; when information grows unprofitable, sleep.”
    —Ursula K. Le Guin (b. 1929)

    “The family circle has widened. The worldpool of information fathered by the electric media—movies, Telstar, flight—far surpasses any possible influence mom and dad can now bring to bear. Character no longer is shaped by only two earnest, fumbling experts. Now all the world’s a sage.”
    —Marshall McLuhan (1911–1980)
