The amount of detailed information which an individual has at his command and his theoretical elaborations of the same are mutually dependent; they grow in and through each other. – Hermann Ebbinghaus
One of the things I constantly think about as a writer is the way in which people are full of contradictions – there’s all this contradictory information inside a human personality. – Justin Cronin
Just mention the idea of warrantless wiretaps and expect to get hit up with a congressional investigation. But give somebody an avatar and a URL, and he can’t tweet, post or hyperlink enough personal information about himself to as many people as possible. – John Ridley
We have met the Devil of Information Overload and his impish underlings, the computer virus, the busy signal, the dead link, and the PowerPoint presentation. – James Gleick
I recognized that information was, in many respects, like a public good, and it was this insight that made it clear to me that it was unlikely that the private market would provide efficient resource allocations whenever information was endogenous. – Joseph Stiglitz
I’m not an investor in Meerkat, sadly, or, Periscope – I missed both of those – however, I do have a lot of inside information. – Jason Calacanis
TweetDeck is a very interesting client, because it presents a view that no other client in the world presents, which is this multicolumn, massive amounts of information in one pane. And people really, really enjoy that. – Jack Dorsey
I’m not a genius. I need other people to get the perfect information. When we have this, we will decide to sign or sell a player. – Jurgen Klopp
At its most fundamental, information is a binary choice. In other words, a single bit of information is one yes-or-no choice. – James Gleick
Man is simply the best chance we know of that matter has had of providing itself with information about itself. – Italo Calvino
I think the search engines are the new equivalent of publishing: an enabler of information. – James Dyson
You need to recognize that the copyright date on a book reflects when it came out, not when it was written – assume that the information in the book is at least a year older than the copyright date, and possibly two. – Jamais Cascio
In a world lit by data, street corners are painted with contextual information, automobiles can navigate autonomously, thermostats respond to patterns of activity, and retail outlets change as rapidly (and individually) as search results from Google. – John Battelle
There is no free speech in football. Information is parsed by monosyllabic head coaches, who dictate who gets to speak to whom and when. – Jane Leavy
Google Now supplants the need to open an app by surfacing cards – cards that magically turn into just the information you need, when you need it – without having to go to an app to get it. – John Battelle
All sorts of factors contribute to what Facebook or Twitter present in a feed, or what Google or Bing show us in search results. Our expectation is that those intermediaries will provide open conduits to others’ content and that the variables in their processes just help yield the information we find most relevant. – Jonathan Zittrain
The word ‘code’ turns out to be a really important word for my book, ‘The Information.’ The genetic code is just one example. We talk now about coders, coding. Computer guys are coders. The stuff they write is code. – James Gleick
The most successful stuff is sold to you as indispensable social information. The message in the music is, ‘We are terribly, terribly slick and suave, and if you listen to us, you can probably get a leg up in society, too.’ – Iggy Pop
You’re sort of programmed a certain way because of your environment. That’s all you know. But we don’t have that anymore because of the internet. Because of the internet we’re all communicating with each other all across the board, so you’re getting information from people all around the world, hitting a much more diverse slice of culture. – Joe Rogan
A popular government without popular information or the means of acquiring it, is but a prologue to a farce, or a tragedy, or perhaps both. – James Madison
Facebook’s privacy policies are confusing to many people, and the company has changed them frequently, almost always allowing more information to be exposed in more ways. – Jose Antonio Vargas
We are developing a media policy which would be about breaking up single ownership of too many sources of information so that we have a multiplicity of sources. – Jeremy Corbyn
There is no longer any anonymity on the Web – unless we mandate it. The most personal information about your online habits is collected, bought and sold, often instantaneously and invisibly. Data collection is a business driven by profits at consumers’ expense. – Jackie Speier
Everything with Marvel is on a need-to-know basis, so I didn’t officially know until the second episode I did, which I think was the 10th episode in the season. Information is carefully guarded over there. I definitely didn’t know that I was ‘Deathlok.’ – J. August Richards
I have a job that requires me to be in the public eye in the way that makes me extra careful about sharing information. – Jesse Eisenberg
We are one people with one family. We all live in the same house… and through books, through information, we must find a way to say to people that we must lay down the burden of hate. For hate is too heavy a burden to bear. – John Lewis
Before blogs, it was all about physical presence. We used to send out videos and audiotapes to communicate. Blogging and the Internet allow us to engage in a lot more real time conversations as opposed to a one-way dump of information or a message. – Indra Nooyi
The danger that we have right now are people who get the same information as I do and, therefore, think they’ll reach the same conclusions that haven’t traded as long, don’t have bear claws up and down their backs like I do. – Jim Cramer
I’ve always felt that the human-centered approach to computer science leads to more interesting, more exotic, more wild, and more heroic adventures than the machine-supremacy approach, where information is the highest goal. – Jaron Lanier
Twittering and blogging and all that is fine, but there is no idea of how to phrase something beautifully; how to use language to create an emotion. It’s just passing information and sometimes very superficial information. – Isabel Allende
