Future shock is the shattering stress and disorientation that we induce in individuals by subjecting them to too much change in too short a time.

The political technology of the Industrial age is no longer appropriate technology for the new civilization taking form around us. Our politics are obsolete.

Change is the process by which the future invades our lives, and it is important to look at it closely, not merely from the grand perspectives of history, but also from the vantage point of the living, breathing individuals who experience it.

Information overload will lead to 'future shock syndrome' as an individual will suffer severe physical and mental disturbances.

Information is a substitute for time, space, capital, and labor.

My wife and I, unlike many intellectuals, spent five years working on assembly lines. We came to fully understand the criticisms of the industrial age, in which you are an appendage of a machine that sets the pace.

The illiterate of the 21st century will not be those who cannot read and write, but those who cannot learn, unlearn, and relearn.
