We are slaves to ordsprog

We are slaves to this consumer society, ... When this civilization ends, what are they going to see when the archaeologists dig us up? I think they're going to say we worshipped technology.

In a consumer society there are inevitably two kinds of slaves: the prisoners of addiction and the prisoners of envy

It's a statement of our position, which is that we are not making this record in order to honor technology; we're not slaves to that, we don't want to be slaves to that.

Herbie Hancock (1940-)
