Douglas Adams on technology



Anything that is in the world when you're born is normal and ordinary and is just a natural part of the way the world works.


Anything that's invented between when you're fifteen and thirty-five is new and exciting and revolutionary and you can probably get a career in it.


Anything invented after you're thirty-five is against the natural order of things.


Douglas Adams: The Salmon of Doubt


Technology is a word that describes something that doesn't work yet.


Douglas Adams: JavaOne keynote, 1999
