Marshall McLuhan/Quotes 
The medium is the message. 
We shape our tools and thereafter our tools shape us. 
A point of view can be a dangerous luxury when substituted for insight and understanding. 
Art is anything you can get away with. 
The new electronic interdependence recreates the world in the image of a global village. 
There are no passengers on spaceship earth. We are all crew. 
Ads are the cave art of the twentieth century. 
Advertising is the greatest art form of the 20th century. 
All media exist to invest our lives with artificial perceptions and arbitrary values. 
The more the data banks record about each one of us, the less we exist.
