Automation is dehumanizing — If it keeps up, man will atrophy all his limbs but the push-button finger.

Automation is overrated — the oxen are slow, but the Earth is patient.

Automation is good — anyone who can be replaced by a machine deserves to be.

Automation is perhaps a good thing, but one ought not forget that it began with Frankenstein.

Capital is that part of the wealth of a country which is employed in production, and consists of food, clothing, tools, raw materials, machinery, etc., necessary to give effect to labor.

Capital is only the fruit of labor, and could never have existed if labor had not first existed. Labor is the superior of capital, and deserves much the higher consideration.

Capital is always to be kept in circulation — money talks, but it doesn't talk in its sleep.

Capital is anthropocentric but it messes with the part of the human that has a foot in the nonhuman; in kindred, friendship, solidarity, symbiosis.

Curiosity is the kernel of the forbidden fruit.

Curiosity is the direct incontinency of the spirit.

Curiosity is, as neugierig, an avarice (gier) of the new (neu), an everyday tendency of Dasein to let itself be restlessly carried along solely by the way the world appears.

Curiosity is a search for novelty and endless stimulation rather than belonging or dwelling.

Education is a chest of tools.

Education is atmosphere, nothing more.

Education is the making of men.

Education is soul crafting.
