Text Quotes
There is no escaping from ourselves. The human dilemma is as it has always been, and we solve nothing fundamental by cloaking ourselves in technological glory  (Neil Postman Quotes) Children are the living messages we send to a time we will not see  (Neil Postman Quotes) A definition is the start of an argument, not the end of one  (Neil Postman Quotes) Reading is the scourge of childhood because, in a sense, it creates adulthood  (Neil Postman Quotes) The written word endures, the spoken word disappears  (Neil Postman Quotes) Children enter school as question marks and leave as periods  (Neil Postman Quotes) The price of maintaining membership in the establishment is unquestioning acceptance of authority  (Neil Postman Quotes) As technical people, we are apt to be preoccupied with scores, not competence  (Neil Postman Quotes) Everything in our background has prepared us to know and resist a prison when the gates begin to close around us... But what if there are no cries of anguish to be heard? Who is prepared to take arms against a sea of amusements? To whom do we complain, and when, and in what tone of voice, when serious discourse dissolves into giggles? What is the antidote to a culture’s being drained by laughter?  (Neil Postman Quotes) Our politics, religion, news, athletics, education and commerce have been transformed into congenial adjuncts of show business, largely without protest or even much popular notice. The result is that we are a people on the verge of amusing ourselves to death  (Neil Postman Quotes)
