“I don’t like cars. I hate the Internet, I hate computers. They interfere with our lives, they take away our time. People work too much on computers, they talk too much, instead of listening and hearing each other.”
— Ray Bradbury American writer 1920 - 2012
“If your business is not on the Internet, then you are not in business!”
— Bill Gates American entrepreneur and public figure 1955
“It’s not the weapon that decides where to shoot. Also, it is not the Internet that decides who to dumb down. You can also become dull on the street. It all depends on the environment.”
“What worries me about the computer age is the fact that now people can find out everything about you. This is an incredible invasion of privacy. Anyone can follow you, and - no matter where you are now - you can be identified if you put your card in an ATM. I keep hearing all this strange talk on the Internet about how in the future power will not belong to whoever has the most nuclear warheads, but to whoever has the most information. But, however, I am not afraid of computers. The computer cannot yet withstand or resist you. For now, he is absolutely defenseless, and you can always destroy him. We just need more people with sledgehammers.”
“By 2021, we want to make Barcelona to football what Apple is to computers, NASA to space exploration and Facebook to the Internet.”
“Every hundred years the media undergoes changes. Now is the time for a total exchange of information between specific people. This is the future of online advertising: nothing works better than a recommendation from your friend, which you can see on his page.“
— Mark Zuckerberg American programmer and Internet technology entrepreneur 1984
“The Internet is the freedom to hide your face behind an avatar, your name behind a nickname, and your thoughts behind posts. This is freedom from oneself.”
“In the future, there will be two types of companies on the market: those who are online and those who are out of business.”
— Bill Gates American entrepreneur and public figure 1955
“The problem with Russians, like many other people, is that they don’t have someone like my rich dad around to teach them the power of the BUSINESS-INVESTMENT triangle. I think it is very important to teach more people to be entrepreneurs and turn their unique ideas into businesses that will create wealth. If we do this, our prosperity will only increase as the information age triumphs across the planet. ... franchises and network marketing are now available through the Internet... All you need is an idea, and we live in the age of ideas. I'm not suggesting that these people quit their jobs and start their own companies. I suggest they keep their jobs and consider starting a business in their free time.”
— Robert Kiyosaki American entrepreneur, investor, writer and teacher 1947
"Rich dad, poor dad"
“The Internet, like any other technology, is basically neutral, you can use it constructively or harmfully. Constructive forms are real, but very few.”
— Noam Chomsky American linguist, political essayist and philosopher 1928

“The deterioration of knowledge is not the only problem. Compared to Soviet times, schoolchildren are losing their creative qualities and independent thinking skills. Over 70% of those wishing to obtain a university education do not have basic skills in independently analyzing information. All they can do is download other people’s texts from the Internet. Psychologists have noted a sharp deterioration in motivation to study and the ability to work in a group. Mutual aid is increasingly alien to high school students. General cultural development is also declining. New generations are essentially isolated from real literature and art.”
“Read, go to museums, listen to opera... Just, for God’s sake, don’t study life from films, TV and the Internet.”
“I think that people today are somehow too carried away with all the Internet, finance and law. This is one of the reasons why we have little innovation.”
— Elon Musk Canadian-American engineer, entrepreneur, inventor and investor 1971
“The Internet has deprived people of the opportunity to be with each other, communicate live and come up with something new. Today, people gather less and less in studios, and instead sit at home and create new music, which sometimes is not bad, but this music will not last long. All I want to say about this is communicate. Socialize, go out and do something instead of being on social media. Hopefully the next generation of musicians will turn their backs on the internet and we'll get a completely different kind of music.”
— Elton John British rock singer, composer and pianist 1947
“I’m really very touched that people on the Internet are demanding that I be given an Oscar, but to be honest, I only do this job because I love it so much, and not because of the awards and prizes.”
— Leonardo DiCaprio American actor and producer 1974
“Browsing the Internet is as brainless an idea as constantly switching TV channels.”
— Stephen William Hawking English theoretical physicist and cosmologist, popularizer of science 1942 - 2018
“I realized that inside of us there is always a confrontation between an adult who is responsible for his life, and a selfish child who constantly demands pleasure. When you take this into account, it is easier to make a wise decision - you can clearly distinguish between the voice of maturity and the whim of a child. Many men, having grown up to two meters, still cherish the child within themselves, hence the indecision and irresponsibility that women so often complain about. I realized that neither time nor people change. What worried people and what happened in them in 1200, worries and happens in 2014. They just didn’t talk about a lot of things out loud before, there wasn’t such coverage. The Internet has changed a lot - now everyone has a personal platform on a social network page. This is both good and bad - on the one hand, people should be heard, but on the other, many of us, having lost our sense of proportion, give free rein to our madness. And it is constantly looking for a way out. The stronger a person is, the more powerful his madness.”
— Elchin Safarli Azerbaijani writer and journalist 1984
Online version of the magazine “Boutique Baku”, June 3, 2014.
“Off the Internet I’m late, but on the Internet I’m an apostle.”
— Oxxxymiron British rap artist 1985

„... In any case, we have four good reasons not to have children. And my cute little brother in too-big pants slept with twenty-five girls in one week after Durch Den Monsun came out. Then we got very drunk with Child Protective Services and most hotels refused to give us rooms. Then some grandfather appeared and we were pursued by the German army. Then the first thing I did was freshen up my eyeliner, go online and write that I was gay on the board. And what’s more... I almost died from anorexia. Nevertheless, we are with you today. Perhaps thanks to all this...”
— Bill Kaulitz vocalist of the German band “Tokio Hotel” 1989
“TV will soon become a thing of history. The Internet, where, at least for now, there is no censorship, will be the main and, most likely, the only source of information for people.”
— Julian Assange Internet journalist, founder of WikiLeaks 1971
