»Ich ziehe die Zeitung zu mir, der Mann will den Feuilleton, ich die Politik. Eine Zeitung. Als ob irgendwo jemals etwas Neues passierte.«
»Der vierzigjährige Drogenkrieg habe verheerende Wirkungen für ganz Amerika. Weder die Produktion illegaler Drogen noch deren Konsum sei zurückgegangen. Gewalt und Korruption, vor allem in den Staaten Mittelamerikas, bewiesen nur, dass die Kriminalisierung der Drogen erst die Probleme hervorbringe, welche der Krieg gegen die Drogen dann bekämpfen solle.«

Florian Lehmuth Claudius Seidl plädiert für eine Legalisierung und staatlich kontrollierten Zugang zu allen Drogen.
»Abandoning reading will force me to be better with my time, vastly more aloof to current events, and a complete bore to everyone around me. And if you’re still crazy enough to be talking to your computer screen, you might be asking, “Why couldn’t you just limit how much you’re reading instead of cutting it out completely?” The answer is simple, young one - because common sense doesn’t get page views.«

»Turning off Wi-Fi isn't suddenly going to make you a different person. You're going to have all the same problems you had before, only now they're going to be even more annoying to other people. Paul doesn't need to quit the internet for a year, Paul needs to control himself and reduce his use to reasonable limits, get some creative hobbies, and spend more time with his friends.«

Florian Lehmuth Garrett Murray's response to Paul Miller's intention of leaving the internet for a year.
»In my wild fantasies, leaving the internet will make me better with my time, vastly more creative, a better friend, a better son and brother... a better Paul. In reality, I'll still be the same person, just with a huge professional and personal handicap. The things I'll miss most, like playing StarCraft with my friend from high school who lives in another state, or sharing Rdio and long read links with a co-worker at the next desk over, I hope to replace with more direct interactions, and more "meaningful" activities - whatever that means. The worst case scenario is that a year from now I'll b[…]«

»Users don't care about design for its own sake; they just want to get things done and get out. Normal people don't love sitting at their computers. They'd rather watch football, walk the dog — just about anything else. Using a computer probably rates above taking out the trash, though.«

»I very quickly drew the Simpsons family. I basically drew my own family. My father’s name is Homer. My mother’s name is Margaret. I have a sister Lisa and another sister Maggie, so I drew all of them. I was going to name the main character Matt, but I didn’t think it would go over well in a pitch meeting, so I changed the name to Bart.«

»Stripping out content from a mobile website is like a book author stripping out chapters from a paperback just because it's smaller. We use our phones for everything now; there's no such thing as "this is mobile content, and this is not."«

»He was 23 years old and knew no one. He slept in pig pens, haystacks and freight trains. He ate whatever he could find. He stole and traded on the black market. He was helped, exploited and betrayed. His legs hurt and he was hungry and cold, yet he was exhilarated. He felt like an alien fallen to earth.«

Florian Lehmuth Shin In Geun, the only person ever known to have fled a North Korean political prison camp.
»But we make a grave mistake to embrace the Extrovert Ideal so unthinkingly. Some of our greatest ideas, art, and inventions – from the theory of evolution to Van Gogh's sunflowers to the personal computer – came from quiet and cerebral people who knew how to tune in to their inner worlds and the treasures to be found there. Without introverts, the world would be devoid of Newton's theory of gravity, Einstein's theory of relativity, WB Yeats's The Second Coming, Chopin's nocturnes, Proust's In Search of Lost Time, Peter Pan, Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four, The Cat in the Hat, Charlie Brown, […]«

»Turning that "we're all coding together in one big room, and we get great ideas and move fast because anyone can walk up to anyone else" ethos into a business required the young CEO to turn his hacker sights on himself.
