These technologies can make life easier can let us touch people we might not otherwise. You may have a child with a birth defect and be able to get in touch with other parents and support groups get medical information the latest experimental drugs. These things can profoundly influence life. I'm not downplaying that.

Unless you have a perception of who you are as a lawyer you will never be at ease in dealing with legal matters clients or courts. But if you know who you are and why you're there all you need is the expertise and the information.

In my book I detail the critical information we obtained from al Qaeda terrorists after they became compliant following a short period of enhanced interrogation. I have no doubt that that interrogation was legal necessary and saved lives.

The real violence is committed in the writing of history the records of the legal system the reporting of news through the manipulation of social contracts and the control of information.

We get information in the mail the regular postal mail encrypted or not vet it like a regular news organization format it - which is sometimes something that's quite hard to do when you're talking about giant databases of information - release it to the public and then defend ourselves against the inevitable legal and political attacks.

My number one goal was not getting 'A's' - and I proved it. I was a 'C' student. You have to be ready to learn. If you're not interesting in learning it doesn't work. As I grew older and wanted to learn and desperately wanted inside information learning was a lot easier.

Information is a source of learning. But unless it is organized processed and available to the right people in a format for decision making it is a burden not a benefit.

Learning about the way people process information and their emotions is hugely helpful to my work.

We're not that much smarter than we used to be even though we have much more information - and that means the real skill now is learning how to pick out the useful information from all this noise.

It's hard for me to imagine that some people in the CIA who had firsthand knowledge would be unable to recognize that this would be helpful information for a soldier's death.

To break boundaries interests me. With all the knowledge that is available now in the world it should be accessible to everyone. You can get so much information on the Internet now and yet there are so many places in the world where people just don't have the education.

Whole areas of knowledge and information have been defined into nonexistence because the system cannot know understand control or measure them.

It's clear that people are going to download media files and they're going to talk to each other and they're going to exchange information and knowledge and so forth. So this system logic is basically what you bounce off of.

I was one of the first generations to watch television. TV exposes people to news to information to knowledge to entertainment. How is it bad?

Many people make the mistake of confusing information with knowledge. They are not the same thing. Knowledge involves the interpretation of information. Knowledge involves listening.

If information and knowledge are central to democracy they are conditions for development.

If you desire information on some point of law you are not likely to ponder over the ponderous tomes of legal writers in order to obtain the knowledge you seek by your own unaided efforts.

We give you the facts. I told you information is power - knowledge is power. We can't be in an ideological battle to redeem the soul of this country if we don't have the facts.

People live longer today than they ever have. They live happier lives have more knowledge more information. All this is the result of communications technology. How is any of that bad?

What can we put into the hands of people under oppressive regimes to help them? For me a big part of it is information knowledge - the ability to defeat propaganda by understanding it.

In the Atlantean period there were many energies being used and information and knowledge being used which were for particular reasons of safety withdrawn shall we say to prevent complete catastrophe to prevent total destruction of your planet.

Technology is so much fun but we can drown in our technology. The fog of information can drive out knowledge.

In your thirst for knowledge be sure not to drown in all the information.

I think a lot of people even Christians are willing to be satisfied with gaining lots and lots of biblical knowledge - and many people go to Bible studies and don't realize it isn't enough to know what's right it's applying the information and the knowledge that you have.

Prices are important not because money is considered paramount but because prices are a fast and effective conveyor of information through a vast society in which fragmented knowledge must be coordinated.

Checking the results of a decision against its expectations shows executives what their strengths are where they need to improve and where they lack knowledge or information.

Where is the Life we have lost in living? Where is the wisdom we have lost in knowledge? Where is the knowledge we have lost in information?

We are drowning in information but starved for knowledge.

Knowledge is power. Information is power. The secreting or hoarding of knowledge or information may be an act of tyranny camouflaged as humility.

Knowledge is of two kinds. We know a subject ourselves or we know where we can find information upon it.
