Frank, you are, without doubt, a scarcity. Anyone who looks at the historical record of the juncture of art and technology finds you nearly unaccompanied when it comes to documenting this historical record between the years of the late-1960's up to the early 1990s. Basically there is you, Jack Burnham's book Beyond Modern Sculpture (1968), and Gene Youngblood's reference work Expanded Cinema (1970). Specifically, your books Origins and Development of Kinetic Art (1968), Art, Action and Participation (1975) and Art of the Electronic Age (1993) are indispensable research tools in helping us figure out how art got to where it is today - in your terms virtualized. (Joseph Nechvatal)
Investors who find the best businesses to put their money behind are rewarded for their research. View quote
Kenneth Griffin
Without the scientific research of modern psychology and sociology there would be no propaganda, or rather we still would be in the primitive stages of propaganda that existed in the time of Pericles or Augustus. View quote
Jacques Ellul
He said that if we want to establish ourselves in the world, we have to be self-sufficient and research for new ideas and techniques. View quote
Vikram Sarabhai
Vikram Sarabhai had dream to conquer the space is no more now but his dream is in fact a prime matter of research in the ISRO even today. View quote
Vikram Sarabhai
It is absolutely in the interest of India to have a vigorous school of research in fundamental physics, for such a school forms the spearhead of research not only in less advanced branches of physics but also in problems of immediate practical application in industry. View quote
Homi J. Bhabha
We don't ask research to do what it was never meant to do, and that is to get an idea. View quote
William Bernbach
Creating fake facts does require a measure of haphazard research, insofar as they need to not just be possible, but also interesting. View quote
John Hodgman
Darwin's racism has nothing to do with the credibility of the theory of evolution.... However, after much research, I do concede that you won't find anything in Darwin's writings that would indicate that he in any way felt blacks were to be treated as inferior or that his views of them were due to their skin color.

Ray Comfort
I start with the measures which the Government announced last Thursday, and which are the immediate occasion of today's debate, and to which the right hon. Gentleman finally came round – a trifle nervously, I thought - after ploughing through that tedious and tendentious farrago of moth-eaten cuttings presented to him by the Conservative Research Department. I must say that part of his speech was rather like being savaged by a dead sheep. View quote
Geoffrey Howe
When you're working well, you don't do research. Whatever you need comes to you. (E. L. Doctorow)
It is always useful, you see, to subject the past life of reform politicians to rather inquisitive research. View quote
Isaac Asimov
Research shows that for jobs of all kinds, emotional intelligence is twice as important an ingredient of outstanding performance as cognitive ability and technical skill combined. View quote
Daniel Goleman
The industrial processes in use today were developed at a time when no one had to consider what the environmental impact was. Who cared? But making ecological concerns matter to a company's bottom line will help it do the research and development that will reinvent everything we buy. View quote
Daniel Goleman
I do a lot of research on what people have done in the past. View quote
David Blaine
No generalizing beyond the data, no theory. No theory, no insight. And if no insight, why do research. View quote
Henry Mintzberg
The aptitudes needed to conduct a real research project are fundamentally different from the ones needed for purposes of scientific vulgarisation (like education). This is because above and beyond a capacity for understanding problems and thinking and expressing oneself clearly – something that every good teacher has –an enormous amount of perseverance and stamina is necessary, and above all a scientific approach rooted in real inventiveness. View quote
Éric Pichet
An inherent paradox of intellectual activity is that reflection (i.e.the phase were a research project is trying to process a complex problem) can be very time-consuming . Unfortunately, it is only when researchers are driven by a sense of urgency that they can make real progress. View quote
Éric Pichet
Ray Black was in prison, so we weren't able to talk to him. I did some research on the internet and found out that he was in prison because he murdered two children after he raped them. There were also pictures of the dead children, and even though I knew it would only hurt me to look at them, I did. I printed them out and put them in *Stuff That Happened To Me*, right after the picture of Jean-Pierre Haigneré, the french astronaut who had to be carried from his spacecraft after returning form the MIR spacestation, because gravity isn't only what makes us fall, it's what makes our muscles strong.

Jonathan Safran Foer
Although I still write, research and investigate, my role is primarily that of a publisher and editor-in-chief who organises and directs other journalists. View quote
Julian Assange
If we had pursued what President Nixon declared in 1970 as the war on cancer, we would have cured many strains. I think Jack Kemp would be alive today. And that research has saved or prolonged many lives, including mine. (Arlen Specter)
For me, any book I'm writing is also a chance to get in and research and read and learn things that I maybe only knew a little bit about before. View quote
Tad Williams
A world view is a coherent collection of concepts and theorems that must allow us to construct a global image of the world, and in this way to understand as many elements of our experience as possible. Societies, as well as individuals, have always contemplated deep questions relating to their being and becoming, and to the being and becoming of the world. The configuration of answers to these questions forms their world view. Research on world views, although we are convinced of its practical value and necessity, will always be primarily an expression of a theoretical interest. It reflects the unlimited openness of the human mind to reality as a whole. Even if this research would not appear to be of any immediate value or necessity – quod non – we still should promote and encourage it energetically, because it also expresses the most unselfish striving of humanity "the desire to know,” a property of "Homo sapiens sapiens.”.

Diederik Aerts
A contemporary or near-future book is much harder because you can't fake the facts. There are people alive who know much more than you do about the subject. You have to really have your research together - and of course no one can know everything about a topic. View quote
Steven Pressfield
New research shows that you will be dead longer than you will be alive. View quote
