“I don't think paper will go away. I do believe that the value of paper will change, and Xerox is working on changing that value. Consider a color page. Actual life is in color, but you keep reproducing it in black and white. You remove value. It's a bad thing to do.” ThinkingBelieveLife IsValuesBlackWhiteColorPaperPagesThings To DoRemoveGoing AwayBad ThingsBlack And WhiteReproducingActual LifeXerox Author:Ursula Burns
“Books should confuse. Literature abhors the typical. Literature flows to the particular, the mundane, the greasiness of paper, the taste of warm beer, the smell of onion or quince. Auden has a line: "Ports have names they call the sea." Just so will literature describe life familiarly, regionally, in terms life is accustomed to use -- high or low matters not. Literature cannot by this impulse betray the grandeur of its subject -- there is only one subject: What it feels like to be alive. Nothing is irrelevant. Nothing is typical.” FeelsShouldBookMatterUseLife IsLiteratureNamesTermLinesAliveSeaSubjectsParticularTastePaperLowsFlowWarmSmellBeerImpulseBetrayTypicalIrrelevantAccustomedMundaneGrandeurPortOnionsAudenQuinceTerm Life Book:Brown: The Last Discovery of America Source: Brown: The Last Discovery of America
