Quotes about paper and books

[I]f books had been invented after the computer, they would have been considered a big breakthrough. Books have several hundred simultaneous paper-thin, flexible displays. They boot instantly. They run on very low power at a very low cost.

Joseph M. Jacobson, MIT, quoted in ARTS IN AMERICA; Creating 'the Last Book' To Hold All the Others by Christopher Lehman-Haupt, April 8, 1998, New York Times
