More quotes by Bruce Sterling
Cyberspace is the funhouse mirror of our own society.
Bruce Sterling
The frontiers of the future will be the ruins of the unsustainable.
Bruce Sterling
Your attitude determines your altitude. Your ambitions are bigger than life Of course. They must be. They encompass it.
Bruce Sterling
A security cam is one small part of a much larger universe of cams. The much larger effect, socially, politically and economically, is going to come from a much larger trend.
Bruce Sterling
Political people don't solve stuff - not really. Political people are like guys in pop music.
Bruce Sterling
Information wants you to give me a dollar.
Bruce Sterling
The past is a kind of future that has already happened.
Bruce Sterling
The future is a process, not a destination.
Bruce Sterling
It's a truism in technological development that no silver lining comes without its cloud.
Bruce Sterling
Saying you have a political solution is like saying you can write a pop song that's going to stay at the top of the list forever. I don't have many illusions about this, but I'm not cynical about it.
Bruce Sterling
I know that the human condition will be radically changed through technical means. Much of this change will be painful, monstrous and horrible. Most mutations are disgusting failures, most experiments are failures. I accept this and I don't find it frightening.
Bruce Sterling
If bin Laden is in fact publicly killed, then the US military will find itself standing around with its hands in its pockets, wondering what's supposed to come next.
Bruce Sterling
A set of Bollywood actresses are coming through Dallas soon in a live tour I'd pay a lot to see them, but alas, I'm fully booked elsewhere.
Bruce Sterling
Story-tellers should listen seriously to design and architecture without getting all literary and imperial about that. Hackers are arrogant geek romantics. They lack the attentive spirit of inquiry.
Bruce Sterling
Cloud computing seems to be following this evolutionary path: A - Internet backbone. B - Information Superhighway. C - The Net. D - The Web. E - The Cloud. F - Ubiquity G- ???
Bruce Sterling
Okay, are you really 'experimenting'? How do you know if you're really experimenting? You're working on it methodically and you're publishing the results! It's not an experiment if you don't publish the results in some verifiable and falsifiable form, okay?
Bruce Sterling
The future is a process, not a destination. Richard Stallman is a guy my age. I sympathize with Richard rather more than I sympathize with Richard's open-source ideas, but the guy's a mortal human being and so is his social movement. Open-source is a means of production.
Bruce Sterling
David Brin is a technological determinist. He thinks that we understand the trend and we need to hop on it. I don't have any such illusions.
Bruce Sterling
People in the Pentagon had colleagues killed and maimed by bin Laden. They're trying to find bin Laden and kill him and his cult. Naturally they consider that a legitimate thing to do, but they're having mixed success at the job.
Bruce Sterling
A dagger is the noble weapon of Brutus. Everyone understands that tyrants fall to daggers. A bomb is a sordid modern device with many complex working parts. Only engineers understand bombs
