Technology becomes something more than machinery.

Technology becomes something more than machinery. It is the visible expression of a continuous act of remembrance. The ancient scribe wrote to preserve the order of the world. The engineer writes to preserve the logic of systems that now hold that world together. Both answer the same impulse that has guided humanity since the first word was fixed in matter. To write is to remember, and to remember is to create again. – Rico Roho (When the Machines Remember the Gods)
