The media's the most powerful entity on earth. They have the power to make the innocent guilty and to make the guilty innocent, and that's power. Because they control the minds of the masses.

Malcolm X

Power, Media, Control

THE MASSES SHOULD BE CONTROLLED
THEY SHOULD BE CONTAINED
SUBDUE THEIR THOUGHTS
UNDUE THEIR BRAINS
FOR WHAT THEY ARE TRAINED
TO BE SHOULD BE SLAVES
WE NEED TO BE IN CHARGE
OF HOW THEY BEHAVE
IN THEIR MENTAL SPACE WE SHOULD BARGE
IN AND INTRUDE
THEY SHOULD ONLY VALUE
THE SOCIAL INCLUDE
THEY ARE NEVER TO HAVE A CLUE
ONLY TO HAVE A CREW
OF A CLUELESS FEW
SEEKING MISCHIEF
WHEN THERE IS NOTHING TO DO
THIS RIFF
WE CAUSE
IS TO KEEP THEM FROM GLEE AND AWE

4:02PM-4:11PM

The more social media we have, the more we think we're connecting, yet we are really disconnecting from each other.

JR

Media, Social, Connecting

 WE SHOULD DISCONNECT
FROM EACH OTHER
WE SHOULDN'T WANT TO REACH ANOTHER
PHYSICALLY
WE SHOULD REPROACH ANOTHER
DISMALLY
WE SHOULD BE SOCIALLY SICK YOU SEE
HOW SICK CAN WE
FORCE THEM TO BE?
OSTRACIZING
THE DIFFERENT FROM THEIR OWN SOCIETY
WE LIE TO SEE
THEM EAT THE TRUTH
OUR INFLUENCE OVER THEM
IS THE CAVITY
EATING THE TOOTH
WE WANT THEM DISTANT
TO FOCUS ONLY THEIR DIFFERENCES
WITHIN AN INSTANT
THEIR EMOTIONAL EMISSIONS
SHOULD BE RIDICULOUSLY ENDLESS
AND SENSELESS
THE DISUNITY IS WHAT WE WANT FROM THEM
UNIFICATION ISN'T

Social media is an amazing tool, but it's really the face-to-face interaction that makes a long-term impact.

 WE DON'T WANT THEM

Social media is changing the way we communicate and the way we are perceived, both positively and negatively. Every time you post a photo, or update your status, you are contributing to your own digital footprint and personal brand.

Social media is the ultimate equalizer. It gives a voice and a platform to anyone willing to engage.

Smart phones and social media expand our universe. We can connect with others or collect information easier and faster than ever.

Daniel Goleman

For all my friends in the media who like quotes, mark this quote down. From this day on I'd like to be known as 'The Big Aristotle' because Aristotle once said, 'Excellence is not a singular act; it's a habit. You are what you repeatedly do.'

Shaquille O'Neal

Excellence, Media, Habit

Social media websites are no longer performing an envisaged function of creating a positive communication link among friends, family and professionals. It is a veritable battleground, where insults fly from the human quiver, damaging lives, destroying self-esteem and a person's sense of self-worth.

Anthony Carmona

The viral power of online media has proven how fast creative ideas can be spread and adopted, using tools like cellphones, digital cameras, micro-credit, mobile banking, Facebook, and Twitter. A perfect example? The way the Green Movement in Iran caught fire thanks to social media.

Tina Brown

Power, Fire, Media

The PC has improved the world in just about every area you can think of. Amazing developments in communications, collaboration and efficiencies. New kinds of entertainment and social media. Access to information and the ability to give a voice people who would never have been heard.

Bill Gates

Amazing, Media, Voice

It's fine to have social media that connects us with old friends, but we need tools that help us discover new people as well.

Ethan Zuckerman

Help, Media, Tools

We need to understand that we are not each others' enemies in this country. And it is only the political class that derives its power by creating friction. It is only the media that derives its importance by creating friction... that uses every little thing to create this chasm between people. This is not who we are.

Ben Carson

Power, Political, Media

The information you get from social media is not a substitute for academic discipline at all.

Bill Nye

Discipline, Media, Academic

Here's a nation, one of the founding pillars was freedom of speech and freedom of expression. And yet, we have imposed upon people restrictions on what they can say, on what they can think. And the media is the largest proponent of this, crucifying people who say things really quite innocently.

Ben Carson

Freedom, Media, Speech

I wanted to promote skateboarding as much as possible through different media.

Tony Hawk

It may be coincidence that the decline of newspapers has corresponded with the rise of social media. Or maybe not.

Ryan Holmes

Regarding social media, I really don't understand what appears to be the general population's lack of concern over privacy issues in publicizing their entire lives on the Internet for others to see to such an extent... but hey it's them, not me, so whatever.

Axl Rose

Privacy, Media, Internet

Mass media provides the essential link between the individual and the demands of the technological society.

Jacques Ellul

Society, Media, Individual

What the mass media offers is not popular art, but entertainment which is intended to be consumed like food, forgotten, and replaced by a new dish.

W. H. Auden

Art, Food, Media

Social media is a giant distraction to the ultimate aim, which is honing your craft as a songwriter. There are people who are exceptional at it, however, and if you can do both things, then that's fantastic, but if you are a writer, the time is better spent on a clever lyric than a clever tweet.

Bryan Adams
