"All these new machines, new processes, and games can be likened to a hand. Is a hand good or bad? It can kill, steal, destroy, give, embrace, support. It depends how you use it. The same with all these modern appliances and systems. The world isn't fast-paced, it's frenetic. People have to be managers of themselves. Time has been managing itself for 15 billion years; we have to manage ourselves in the context of time."
Response by brain researcher, Tony Buzan, to the question of whether today's faster paced life, from smartphones to Twitter to YouTube, harm intelligence. (Scholastic Administrator, Late Fall 2010)
