This whole phenomenon of the computer in a library is an amazing thing.

I became a beach bum.

If McLaren give me a car, that’s fine, but I don’t tend to buy fancy stuff anyway or super-nice clothes.

Man is still the most extraordinary computer of all.

I love making movies, but there’s nothing like performing live.

Too many of us now tend to worship self indulgence and consumption.

I just think people have a lot of fiction. But, you know, I mean, the real story of Facebook is just that we’ve worked so hard for all this time. I mean, the real story is actually probably pretty boring, right? I mean, we just sat at our computers for six years and coded.

The average family spends 30 hours in front of a television, and they say they don’t have the time to have a balanced, integrated life.

I’m not in the loop; I don’t know any actors, really, just the ones I work with.

My music is a luxury.

I like to take it easy.

DOS is ugly and interferes with users‘ experience.

I do not take a single newspaper, nor read one a month, and I feel myself infinitely the happier for it.

My justification is that most people my age spend a lot of time thinking about what they’re going to do for the next five or ten years. The time they spend thinking about their life, I just spend drinking.
