IT needs people & action

"IT on its own does not do anything useful; in order to do anything, it must become part of an information system; information systems do not necessarily involve computers and telecommunication equipment; even when they do, information systems are much more than just IT because they involve people and their actions".

- Richard Heeks (1998) - found in article "information age reform of the public sector: the potential and problesm of IT for India"
