Daniel J. Boorstin
  • Technology is so much fun but we can drown in our technology. The fog of information can drive out knowledge.

  • Time makes heroes but dissolves celebrities.

  • The traveler was active he went strenuously in search of people, of adventure, of experience. The tourist is passive he expects interesting things to happen to him. He goes 'sight-seeing.'

  • The greatest obstacle to discovery is not ignorance - it is the illusion of knowledge.
