Most of us feel overburdened by information, although I would say the overloaded feeling comes more from coordinating all of the information and responding to it.

It's like driving your car. If you drive too fast on the highway, you will topple, so you better maintain your speed. Life is similar to that, and that's the way you have to control your head.

People's minds are overloaded with information.

I think I've begun to take for granted how easily information can swirl around me.

I look at my first appointment book from 1965 and I get dizzy. I was constantly in a phone booth calling photographers.

Well, I like to think that my illness has prevented me from rising to any number of dizzy heights.

Our obsession with speed, with cramming more and more into every minute, means that we race through life instead of actually living it. Our health, diet and relationships suffer. We make mistakes at work. We struggle to relax, to enjoy the moment, even to get a decent night's sleep.

I don't think we realise just how fast we go until you stop for a minute and realise just how loud and how hectic your life is, and how easily distracted you can get.

Every second of every day, our senses bring in way too much data than we can possibly process in our brains.

From the vertigo, I found out how far I can push myself physically and also mentally.
