我们生活在一个可怕的吉文斯的世界中。鉴于您会关心这一点，因此您将以这种方式行事。没有人想到吉文斯。这不是很棒吗？在信息社会中，没有人想到。我们期望放逐纸，但实际上我们驱逐了思想。
(We live in a world of frightful givens. It is given that you will behave like this, given that you will care about that. No one thinks about the givens. Isn't it amazing? In the information society, nobody thinks. We expected to banish paper, but we actually banished thought.)
