We expect more from technology and less from each other. We create technology to provide the illusion of companionship without the demands of friendship.

Technology doesn't just do things for us. It does things to us, changing not just what we do but who we are.

What is so seductive about texting, about keeping that phone on, about that little red light on the BlackBerry, is you want to know who wants you.

The feeling that 'no one is listening to me' make us want to spend time with machines that seem to care about us.

People are lonely. The network is seductive. But if we are always on, we may deny ourselves the rewards of solitude.

I've become a guy who's like a complaining, whining neurotic.

Sometimes I'm not even satisfied when I got 6 points and 22 rebounds, because I'm always looking to do more.

I've been drinking. Now I'm going to drink some more.
