When my grandfather died I started adopting some of his accents to sort of remind myself of him. A homage. He was a war hero and he was really great with his hands.

Technology isn't the enemy it is our ally but only if we adopt a new model that puts people before profit. I realize that we seem far from that model but I have seen it in action and it is a beautiful thing. So I'm not willing to give up yet. Hope is the last thing to die.

Nevertheless the number of farmers small as well as large who are adopting the new seeds and new technology is increasing very rapidly and the increase in numbers during the past three years has been phenomenal.

School districts in the US don't adopt technology very quickly.

Creative people are notoriously the slowest to adopt new technology.

Any new technology tends to go through a 25-year adoption cycle.

Technology has to be invented or adopted.

My opinion my conviction gains immensely in strength and sureness the minute a second mind as adopted it.

In praising science it does not follow that we must adopt the very poor philosophies which scientific men have constructed. In philosophy they have much more to learn than to teach.

True science is never speculative it employs hypotheses as suggesting points for inquiry but it never adopts the hypotheses as though they were demonstrated propositions.
