Ann Veneman Kubrick's vision seemed to be that humans are doomed, whereas Clarke's is that humans are moving on to a better stage of evolution. Marvin Minsky Maybe humans are just the pet alligators that God flushed down the toilet. Chuck Palahniuk Measles and TB evolved from diseases of our cattle, influenza from a disease of pigs, and smallpox possibly from a disease of camels. The Americas had very few native domesticated animal species from which humans could acquire such diseases. Jared Diamond Most of the tasks we do are for humans. For example, a tax calculation is counting numbers so the government can pull money out from my wallet, but government consists of humans. Yukihiro Matsumoto Most of what you see now emphasizes animals being dangerous to humans. Jim Fowler Nothing defines humans better than their willingness to do irrational things in the pursuit of phenomenally unlikely payoffs. This is the principle behind lotteries, dating, and religion. Scott Adams Observing humans and observing oneself yields a clear-minded starting point for literature. Gao Xingjian Of all the creative work produced by humans anywhere, a tiny fraction has continuing commercial value. For that tiny fraction, the copyright is a crucially important legal device. Lawrence Lessig One of the things that was kind of shocking for humans... was to come to terms with was the fact that, hey, we may not be the center of the universe. Kevin J. Anderson One shouldn't be afraid of the humans. Well, I am not afraid of the humans, but of what is inhuman in them. Ivo Andric People in very high places suddenly fall, and we are always surprised because we don't factor in the basic element that they're humans and, therefore, they are flawed and have weaknesses. Carlisle Floyd People often say that humans have always eaten animals, as if this is a justification for continuing the practice. According to this logic, we should not try to prevent people from murdering other people, since this has also been done since the earliest of times. Isaac Bashevis Singer People who work on the user interface side need to have empathy as a key characteristic. But if you are writing device drivers you don't really need to understand humans so well. Andy Hertzfeld Perhaps the thing that makes humans truly unique on Earth is that we are never satisfied with our situation; maybe that is what's taken us so far. Joan D. Vinge Pets have more love and compassion in them than most humans. Robert Wagner Photography, alone of the arts, seems perfected to serve the desire humans have for a moment - this very moment - to stay. Sam Abell President Bush's proposal to focus our resources on sending humans to Mars is intriguing, but it is not the most compelling reason that Americans ought to focus our interest on the Red Planet. Jay Inslee Probably the most visible example of unintended consequences, is what happens every time humans try to change the natural ecology of a place. Margaret J. Wheatley Ringo is one of the world's true humans. The only one out those four guys, who did not have an agenda. Ringo was just into the music. Peter Tork |
