Over the last few millennia we've invented a series of technologies - from the alphabet to the scroll to the codex, the printing press, photography, the computer, the smartphone - that have made it progressively easier and easier for us to externalize our memories, for us to essentially outsource this fundamental human capacity.

Through using our memory to its fullest we can unlock the vast reservoir of human potential that isn't currently being used.

We can make life in the computer. Granted, it's limited, but we have learned what it takes in order to actually construct it.

I hope that memory is valued - that we do not lose memory.

Memory is the thing you forget with.

Nobody really invents anything that hasn't been done before.

I think that we are already making steps toward mapping out the brain so we can identify the chemical patterns that create and store memory.

You never know when you're making a memory.

You can mass-produce hardware; you cannot mass-produce software - you cannot mass-produce the human mind.
