Quotes from the episode

We’ve divided things up into very strange and restrictive categories in a world where those categories are completely merged and mixed and changing every minute.

—Cathy N. Davidson

Every generation has some new technology which we’re convinced is going to destroy us.

—Cathy N. Davidson

I believe in being skeptical about technology and therefore learning how to use it well.

—Cathy N. Davidson
