[Telecentres] seeking inspirational quotes on ICT4D, telecentres, community media, etc

[Andy Carvin]

Hi everyone,

As many of you know, I'm editing a book on the telecentre movement with IDRC. One of the sections of the book is going to be a photo montage of people involved in digital divide projects around the world, and we're hoping to include a series of quotes from people with the photos. We're looking for inspirational, thoughtful quotes -- not too long, preferably -- from people involved in bridging the digital divide, telecentres, community media, ICT4D, etc, as well as people who are benefiting from these programs. (For example, I love citing Jello Biafra's line, "Don't hate the media - BECOME the media!") The book is intended for an international audience, so we're seeking quotes from around the world.

Does anyone have any favorite quotes they'd like us to consider for inclusion? If so, please send them to me off list. Once I've collected them, I'll share them with the list; some of them, I hope, will be suitable for use in the book as well.

thanks,
andy
