Communication : (183) " The difficulty of literature is not to write, but to write what you mean; not to affect your reader, but to affect him precisely as you wish. " - Robert Louis Stevenson " I don’t think that VR is going to lead to humanity being enslaved in the matrix or letting the world crumble around us. I think it’s going to end up being a great technology that brings closer people together, that allows for better communication, that reduces a lot of environmental waste that we’re currently doing in the real world. " - Palmer Luckey " The rhythmical unit of the syllable is at the back of all of it – the word, the phrase, the sentence, the syntax, the paragraph, and the way the heart moves when you read it. " - Ali Smith " I always get super confused by the way we look at technology, because since when were all phone calls created equal? It’s not like every text is the same or that all texts are human interactions that are compromised. I don’t get how conduits somehow dictate sentiment. " - Mary H.K. Choi " The Internet used to be fun, it was nice, now it’s a way for people to be abusive towards one another. " - Vogue Williams " I keep in touch with a lot of people I work with. " - Kim Fields " I think any great culture is born out of transparent, authentic communication. You almost can’t overcommunicate. You can try, and you might think, ‘Oh, do I really have to say this again?’ And the answer is yes. " - Brad Garlinghouse " When you fail to communicate, there are gray areas. And when there’s gray areas, then bad things happen. " - Matt Nagy " I was always writing. I’ve always been attracted to words and stories, communication. " - Lucy Dacus " Coming to know one another based on a shared humanity through dialogue is the key to breaking down the walls of isolation and reversing the decline of life-to-life bonds among human beings.
