Famous quotes containing the words university, science and/or technology:

    “A University should be a place of light, of liberty, and of learning.”
    —Benjamin Disraeli (1804–1881)

    “We have to ask ourselves whether medicine is to remain a humanitarian and respected profession or a new but depersonalized science in the service of prolonging life rather than diminishing human suffering.”
    —Elisabeth Kübler-Ross (b. 1926)

    “If the technology cannot shoulder the entire burden of strategic change, it nevertheless can set into motion a series of dynamics that present an important challenge to imperative control and the industrial division of labor. The more blurred the distinction between what workers know and what managers know, the more fragile and pointless any traditional relationships of domination and subordination between them will become.”
    —Shoshana Zuboff (b. 1951)
