“Wenn irgendein Gegenstand zur Gottheit des Techniktagebuchs erhoben und etwa jede halbe Stunde angebetet werden müsste, weil er uns den unendlichen Kreislauf von Problem und Lösung, Problem und Lösung im Universum vor Augen führt, dann ist es der Uhrenbeweger für selbstaufziehende Uhren.”

― Ursula K. LeGuin
