    The more we reduce ourselves to machines in the lower things, the more force we shall set free to use in the higher.
    Anna C. Brackett (1836–1911)

    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)

    All alone by the telephone.
    —Irving Berlin (1888–1989)
