Famous quotes containing the words fisher and/or information:
“People ask me: Why do you write about food, and eating, and drinking? Why dont you write about the struggle for power and security, and about love, the way the others do?... The easiest answer is to say that, like most other humans, I am hungry.”
—M.F.K. Fisher (19081992)
“The information links are like nerves that pervade and help to animate the human organism. The sensors and monitors are analogous to the human senses that put us in touch with the world. Data bases correspond to memory; the information processors perform the function of human reasoning and comprehension. Once the postmodern infrastructure is reasonably integrated, it will greatly exceed human intelligence in reach, acuity, capacity, and precision.”
—Albert Borgman, U.S. educator, author. Crossing the Postmodern Divide, ch. 4, University of Chicago Press (1992)
