Technology is a big destroyer of
emotion and truth. Technology
doesn’t do anything for creativity.

Yeah it makes things easier, you
can get home sooner, but it
doesn’t make you a more
creative person. That’s the
disease you have to fight in any
creative field: ease of use.
- Jack White. It Might Get Loud
