Not really a computer quote, but about technology in general. I post it here, because it's timeless. Hope that's okay.
German writer Thomas Mann, who was on a trip (by ship) to America, was annoyed by the constantly repeating news (over radio) about an intoxicated zoo tiger.
In a letter to a friend he wrote:
"A technical marvel like radio telegraphy must serve
to carry such nonsense over land and waves .. Oh mankind ..
Their spiritual and moral progress had not kept pace with the technical.
It is left far behind." (translated)
As you may notice, this was an understanding of a person from two centuries ago.
Now we have un-social media, based on computer technology. But that intoxicated zoo tiger is still with us.
