Additional quotes by Ted Nelson

I have long been alarmed by people’s sheeplike acceptance of the term ‘computer technology’ — it sounds so objective and inexorable — when most computer technology is really a bunch of ideas turned into conventions and packages.

Most people are fools, most authority is malignant, God does not exist, and everything is wrong.

You can and must understand computers now!
