I don’t have an alarm clock. If someone needs to wake me up, then I have my BlackBerry next to me.

The truth of Moore’s law has made remarkable things possible. On the software side, I think natural user interfaces in all their forms are equally significant.

All men are children, and of one family. The same tale sends them all to bed, and wakes them in the morning.

California is not just the Golden State. We are also the Internet State.

I don’t like typing messages on my phone. Some people get used to it.

While I have never learned to use a computer, I am surrounded by family and friends who carry information to me from blogs, Facebook, Twitter, and various websites.

I wake up in the morning and my mind starts making sentences, and I have to get rid of them fast – talk them or write them down.

Apple took the edge off the word ‚computer.‘

I do not fear computers. I fear the lack of them.

After the first day of practice, there’s not one guy who’s playing at 100 percent or who feels great. Sometimes, getting up in the morning and brushing your teeth is the hardest part of the day – it just hurts.

What I’m trying to do is, is to make a significant difference in space flight. And help make space flight accessible to almost anyone.

Technology is unlocking the innate compassion we have for our fellow human beings.

If there were camera phones back in the day, the biggest athletes in the world would have had a lot of explaining to do.

Apple has given me a platform to spread music. They’re giving us Latinos a chance to shine.

I know when I grew up, it was, if it was daylight outside, get outside. Well, now, with the technological age of computers and everything, everyone’s inside virtually going everywhere they want to go, virtually having relationships, virtually traveling across the neighborhood, virtually going to that island.

You can’t really imagine music without technology.

Honestly, I think we should be delighted people still want to read, be it on a Kindle or a Nook or whatever the latest device is.

I think there are going to be a bunch of tablet-like devices. It’s really a different product category.

In the morning, I practice 15 minutes of yoga.

You hear doom and gloom about the Internet ruining young people’s command of English – that’s nonsense.

I am in touch with a company that hopes to replicate my voice. However, they are not replicating my original voice – if they did that, I would sound like a man in his 20s, which would be very strange! They are actually trying to replicate the synthesizer that sits on my wheelchair.

I don’t have maids or servants, and my husband and I love waking up early and going to the 24-hour supermarket when there is nobody else there.

In my day, there were no vet video games.

The most impactful dollars that Australia can spend are actually what goes to help the poorest.

Our body is dependant on Heaven and Heaven on the Spirit.

I hate cameras. They are so much more sure than I am about everything.

In the early days of the military Arpanet, my daughter was studying in Nicaragua. Because the U.S. was essentially at war with them, contact was difficult. I managed to use MIT’s Arpanet connection, and she found one, so we could communicate thanks to the Pentagon!

First thing I do in the morning, after I have my breakfast and do my spiritual work, is put on my makeup and fix my hair, and I can do my makeup in 15 minutes.

I feel very strongly that SpaceX would not have been able to get started, nor would we have made the progress that we have, without the help of NASA.

My opinion is it’s a bridge too far to go to fully autonomous cars.

The wealth of information now available at the click of a finger amazes me.

If you wake up whenever you want, and you slept for 10 hours, and you’re lazy getting out of bed, then I believe that affects your whole life in a negative way.

I know there’s a farmer out there somewhere who never wants a PC and that’s fine with me.

There are really two things that have to occur in order for a new technology to be affordable to the mass market. One is you need economies of scale. The other is you need to iterate on the design. You need to go through a few versions.

I’m sorry, it’s true. Having children really changes your view on these things. We’re born, we live for a brief instant, and we die. It’s been happening for a long time. Technology is not changing it much – if at all.

The sun, with all those planets revolving around it and dependent on it, can still ripen a bunch of grapes as if it had nothing else in the universe to do.

Google’s done a super good job on search; Apple’s done a great job on the IPod.

Study hard so that you can master technology, which allows us to master nature.

If we drive down the cost of transportation in space, we can do great things.

I mean Facebook is no longer a company, it’s a country. 2 billion users. It can influence what we think, what we believe, how we vote, what we buy, even how we feel.

Progressively saved by the machine from the anxieties that bound his hands and mind to material toil, relieved of a large part of his work and compelled to an ever-increasing speed of action by the devices which his intelligence cannot help ceaselessly creating and perfecting, man is about to find himself abruptly plunged into idleness.

There is a difference between what technology enables and what historical business practices enable.

I get asked a lot why Apple’s customers are so loyal. It’s not because they belong to the Church of Mac! That’s ridiculous.

The Internet didn’t get invented on its own. Government research created the Internet so that all the companies could make money off the Internet. The point is, is that when we succeed, we succeed because of our individual initiative, but also because we do things together.

Success in creating AI would be the biggest event in human history. Unfortunately, it might also be the last, unless we learn how to avoid the risks.

Men have become the tools of their tools.

Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.

Microsoft is not about greed. It’s about innovation and fairness.

I think Tesla will most likely develop its own autopilot system for the car, as I think it should be camera-based, not Lidar-based. However, it is also possible that we do something jointly with Google.

I just think that VR and AR are going to be a really big deal.

For the first time we’re allowing developers who don’t work at Facebook to develop applications just as if they were. That’s a big deal because it means that all developers have a new way of doing business if they choose to take advantage of it. There are whole companies that are forming whose only product is a Facebook Platform application.

They need help, and we have helped, and we are here to help. And we are helping, and we’re going to continue to help.

Discipline starts every day when the first alarm clock goes off in the morning. I say ‚first alarm clock‘ because I have three, as I was taught by one of the most feared and respected instructors in SEAL training: one electric, one battery powered, one windup.

‚Tis not enough to help the feeble up, but to support them after.

Although designers continue to dream of ‚transparency‘ – technologies that just do their job without making their presence felt – both creators and audiences actually like technologies with ‚personality.‘

Japan’s very interesting. Some people think it copies things. I don’t think that anymore. I think what they do is reinvent things. They will get something that’s already been invented and study it until they thoroughly understand it. In some cases, they understand it better than the original inventor.

Land on Mars, a round-trip ticket – half a million dollars. It can be done.

It’s a nice reader, but there’s nothing on the iPad I look at and say, ‚Oh, I wish Microsoft had done it.‘

It’s not a faith in technology. It’s faith in people.

When you’re drowning, you don’t say ‚I would be incredibly pleased if someone would have the foresight to notice me drowning and come and help me,‘ you just scream.

Compared to other animals, we humans enter the world remarkably weak and helpless. We remain relatively weak for many years before we can truly operate on our own.
