Sherry Turkle Quotes

These days, insecure in our relationships and anxious about intimacy, we look to technology for ways to be in relationships and protect ourselves from them at the same time Picture Quote #1

These days, when people are alone, or feel a moment of boredom, they tend to reach for a device. In a movie theater, at a stop sign, at the checkout line at a supermarket and, yes, at a memorial service, reaching for a device becomes so natural that we start to forget that there is a reason, a good reason, to sit still with our thoughts: It does honor to what we are thinking about. It does honor to ourselves Picture Quote #1

The computer takes up where psychoanalysis left off. It takes the ideas of a decentered self and makes it more concrete by modeling mind as a multiprocessing machine Picture Quote #1

Thumbs up or thumbs down on a website is not a conversation. The danger is you get into a habit of mind where politics means giving a thumbs up or thumbs down to a website. The world is a much more complex place Picture Quote #1

It used to be that we imagined that our mobile phones would be for us to talk to each other. Now, our mobile phones are there to talk to us Picture Quote #1

I think few people of education enter politics because it seems like a contact blood sport Picture Quote #1

Technology doesn’t just do things for us. It does things to us, changing not just what we do but who we are Picture Quote #1

We seem determined to give human qualities to objects and content to treat each other as things Picture Quote #1

Technology challenges us to assert our human values, which means that first of all, we have to figure out what they are Picture Quote #1

I think computers are the ultimate writing tool. I’m a very slow writer, so I appreciate it every day Picture Quote #1

Someday, someday, but certainly not now, I’d like to learn how to have a conversation Picture Quote #1

We expect more from technology and less from each other. We create technology to provide the illusion of companionship without the demands of friendship Picture Quote #1
