Silicon Valley must confront its own contradictions—championing freedom while enabling systems that stifle it. Only through self-reflection can real innovation occur.

John Dos Passos 95 quotes

Data, when wielded with responsibility, becomes a force for understanding—not control. Its true power lies in its ability to illuminate, not dictate.

We have to find places that we protect away from government so that we can all be the unique and interesting and, in my case, somewhat deviant people we'd like to be.

A novel is a commodity that fulfills a certain need; people need to buy daydreams like they need to buy ice cream or aspirin or gin. They even need to buy a pinch of intellectual catnip now and then to liven up their thoughts...

In certain savage tribes in New Guinea, they put the old people up in the trees and shake them once a year in the spring; if they don't fall out they let them live another year.

Isn't it curious how completely ignorant we all are of the most important part of our bodily mechanism. It is really criminal. Yet there is no nation in the world that doesnt surround sex with fantastic walls. Of course ours are sillier than any-but not much.

John Dos Passos 95 quotes

Why, lies are like a sticky ju...

Why, lies are like a sticky juice overspreading the world, a living, growing flypaper to catch and gum the wings of every human soul. . . And the little helpless buzzings of honest, liberal, kindly people, aren't they like the thin little noise flies make when they're caught?

The world's becoming a museum of socialist failures.

It's almost worth having been in the army for the joy your freedom gives you

The creation of a world view is the work of a generation rather than of an individual, but we each of us, for better or for worse, add our brick to the edifice.

The only way to find out anything about what kinds of lives people led in any given period is to tunnel into their records and to let them speak for themselves

I've always thought you should concentrate on paddling your own canoe.
