More quotes by Kevin Kelly
Technology is all the accumulated usefulness that our minds invent.
Kevin Kelly

Nobody is as smart as everybody.
Kevin Kelly
Evolution doesn't care about what makes sense it cares about what works
Kevin Kelly
Since a relationship involves two members investing in it, its value increases twice as fast as one's investment.
Kevin Kelly
The organization and the environment are in concert.
Kevin Kelly
In the context of your dreams,knowledge will always gives you enough reasons not to act. Act regardless and execute xceptionally
Kevin Kelly
We tend to think of the mind of an organization residing in the CEO and the organization's top managers, perhaps with the help of outside consultants that they call in. But that is not really how an organization thinks.
Kevin Kelly
When a system is in turbulence, the turbulence is not just out there in the environment, but is a part of the organization or organism that you are looking at.
Kevin Kelly
What technology is really about is better ways to evolve. That is what we call an 'infinite game.' ... A finite game is played to win, and an infinite game is played to keep playing.
