22) "Time is the coin of your life. It is the only coin you have, and you can determine how will it be spent. Be careful lest you let other spend it for you."

-Carl Sandburg

What this basically means is that we should spend our time wisely. Mainly because it is the only thing you have if everything else is lost. Yup, No matter what happens.

21) "An unhurried sense of time is in itself a form of wealth."

- Bonnie Friedman

When you think that you're not in a hurry, then you will somehow find your "wealth." This type of wealth would be whatever you have as a goal. If you don't worry about time, then it'll be easier to finish your task.

20) "All that belongs to us is time; even he who has nothing else has that."

- Baltasar Gracian

This quote basically means that if you're taken away everything (that is materialistic), you haven't lost one thing yet. That is called time, & there is always time to solve your problems.

19) "If we value the pursuit of knowledge, we must be free to follow wherever the search may lead us. The free mind is not a barking dog to be tethered on a ten-foot chain."

- Adlai E. Stevenson

What i think this means is that you must let your mind have liberty if you want to learn. There is no way to learn if you trap your free mind. This will cause you to learn nothing since you will have a closed mind.

18) "There is an evil tendency underlying all our technology, the tendency to do what is reasonable even when it isn't any good."

-Robert Pirsig

People everywhere have had the intention to express their ideas even when they are not thinking what they are going to do. So they just go for what they think is justice no matter what comes at us.

17) For a successful technology reality must take precedence over public relations for nature cannot be fooled.

-Richard Fennon

What I think this means is that when people want to create some type of electronics or technology they must know what's going to be the use of it, how is it going to operate, and is it going to be for entertainment.

16) "Humanity is acquiring all the right technology for all wrong reasons."

-R. Buckminister

People are getting technology and not using it efficiently. Maybe they do not know how to use it and they have the technology...

15) "Technology is dominated by two types of people: Those who understand what they do not manage, and those who manage what they do not understand."

- Archibald Putt

What I think this means is that people who use technology are people who may have a computer system at their home may have more knowledge than those with a computer. Somehow it looks/seems like that.

14) "This is why I loved technology; if you used it right, it could give you power and privacy."

-Cory Doctorrow

What I think this means is if you know how to use technology well, then you are a master and may overpower it. Meaning you can guide others, and those others may guide others someday.

13) "Technology is a way of organizing the universe so that man doesn't experience it."

-Max Frisch

What I think this means is that technology is a source where people can learn from. This source is easily accessible, informative, learnable, and requires no damage unless your internet connection is slow. So, basically, we can learn from reading & visualization.

12) "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic."

-Clarks Third Law (1961)

What I think this means is that... Technology is like magic. They are most likely alike. There looks like there is no difference, because technology has advanced through the years like bolts of lighting. This is why the 20th century is nicknamed the 21st century.

Quote of the day-October 2, 2009

11) My word is bond, and bond means life, and I shall give my life before my word shall fail.

-Elijah Muhammed

Mr. Siyam made us have a firewrite on this comment yesterday. But, I don't want to explain all of it. So for short, what I think this means is that Elijah would give his life than actually accept he made a mistake. Which is loyal, but unnecessary. I think Muhammed should have better said "I shall accept my mistakes which won't happen again." Then he wouldn't put his life in danger.
