Christian Lous Lange

I use the computer only for homework and that’s all was the magic rule. Christian Lous Lange famous quote states, “Technology is a useful servant but a dangerous master” (“Technology: Useful Servant / Dangerous Master”, 2014). That is to say we control the technology and if ever gets control of us then it will cause danger to our society. Technology is not the bad but we are if we let ourselves to get manipulated. Also Lange gives truth about our technology by asserting, “Nowhere is this sense of

Christian Lous Lange once said “Technology is a useful servant but a dangerous master.” Ray Bradbury, would agree with this quote completely because in his story, “The Veldt”, he shows how too much technology can affect families by using conflicts between a set of parents and their children. Technology can be obsessive, and can cause people to become unfocused at what’s at hand. In this story, Bradbury uses a failing family unit, obsession of materials, and lack of discipline to show that not reprimanding

Let’s give our soul the rest that truly deserves. The purpose of spending a day without technology is to detoxify ourselves from the continuous barrage of information. Just as Mark Bittman mentions in his article, “I felt connected to myself rather than my computer. I had time to think, and distance from normal demands.”(4) We are so accustomed to rely on technology that we seem to forget what would become of us without it. Internet, radio, television, cell phones, video games and other technological

boarding pass was sent to my email, and I couldn’t have called an Uber to get back to school. Technology is fully, and permanently, intertwined into our lives in a way we can’t get rid of without drastically changing our way of life. Professor Christian Lous Lange said, “technology is a useful servant, but a dangerous master.” Our society is on the verge of letting our phones, laptops, and everyday technologies become our masters. Drawing the line where technology surpases usefulness and crosses over

easier to use religious metaphors to describe what the author tries to regain. “I realized that there is more to the secular Sabbath than an impulse, or even a day off from e-mail. And there are reasons that nonsecular Sabbaths — the holy days of Christians, Jews and Muslims — have rules that require discipline.”(3) This is where this successful writer compares religion to his day off , reminding us that if we want to include this “day off” in our life, we need to have regulations that will guide us

Which story was more disturbing the veldt or the walls? Technology is a useful servant but a dangerous master. This quote by Christian Lous Lange, summarizes the story of the veldt, its morals, and most importantly, society’s views on technology itself. The line where this blurs is one we fear, and usually do not recognize at first. Whether you agree with this quote or not, it is a disturbing perspective on the advance of knowledge. Imagining a world where technology engulfs the mind of the children

Christian Lous Lange once said,”Technology is a useful servant but a dangerous master.” What Lange said fits the theme of the short story “The Veldt” by Ray Bradbury. In the story “The Veldt”, the parents of Peter and Wendy, George and Lydia, buy a very technologically advanced house that does everything for them. Eventually, the kids become very spoiled and feel like they don’t need their parents because the house basically is their parent. One room in the house is called the nursery; the nursery

“Technology is a useful servant but a dangerous master,” is a quote from the Nobel Lecture given by Christian Lous Lange in 1921 (IV, par6). Technology has enhanced and empowered media, creating a whole new framework. In times past media entered into our homes through newspapers or nightly newscasts; due to advances in technology, our homes are now overrun with various types of media and the media have changed how people view themselves and others. Although the access to media through technology

Christian Lous Lange once said, “Technology is a useful servant but a dangerous master.” Many would agree, as modern day scientists threaten that robots are taking over our jobs more and more everyday. While many are discomforted by this idea, author Kevin Kelly is intrigued with this idea in his article, “Better Than Human: Why Robots Will⎼And Must⎼Take Our Jobs,” saying that increasing technology in the workplace will benefit our society by increasing productivity. In his article, Kelly uses specific

“Technology is a useful servant but a dangerous master” (Christian Lous Lange). Mankind has always sought to advance its knowledge of the world and to make life easier and better for its citizens. However, some scientific breakthroughs have led to unintended consequences. We as a community have the responsibility of guaranteeing our new technology doesn’t have unintended consequences or become dangerous. That includes allowing obsession and/ or abhorrence of it get in the way of caring for
