I have already demonstrated, by crucial tests, the practicability of signaling by my system from one to any other point of the globe, no matter how remote, and I shall soon convert the disbelievers.

Always try to use the language so as to make quite clear what you mean and make sure your sentence couldn’t mean anything else.

I’m responsible for starting a whole new school of pretension.

You just have to have a simple faith.

Every spoken word arouses our self-will.

My mother always taught us that if people don’t agree with you, the important thing is to listen to them. But if you’ve listened to them carefully and you still think that you’re right, then you must have the courage of your convictions.

Short words are best and the old words when short are best of all.

When I talk to kids, I’m really listening. When I do that, we have a little bit of a bigger connection than me being Kendrick Lamar and you being a student. It’s almost like we’re friends. Because a friend listens.

When it comes to gossip, I have to readily admit men are as guilty as women.

People talk to people who perceive nothing, who have open eyes and see nothing; they shall talk to them and receive no answer; they shall adore those who have ears and hear nothing; they shall burn lamps for those who do not see.

Reason is the enemy of faith.

When people are connected, we can just do some great things. They have the opportunity to get access to jobs, education, health, communications. We have the opportunity to bring the people we care about closer to us. It really makes a big difference.

We often refuse to accept an idea merely because the tone of voice in which it has been expressed is unsympathetic to us.

I don’t believe in death, neither in flesh nor in spirit.

Each one of them is Jesus in disguise.

The voice of the people has been said to be the voice of God; and, however generally this maxim has been quoted and believed, it is not true to fact. The people are turbulent and changing, they seldom judge or determine right.

One life is all we have and we live it as we believe in living it. But to sacrifice what you are and to live without belief, that is a fate more terrible than dying.

There are massive efforts on the part of the internet’s corporate owners to try to direct it to become a technique of marginalisation and control.

One thing I’ve always loved about the culture at Microsoft is there is nobody who is tougher on us, in terms of what we need to learn and do better, than the people in the company itself. You can walk down these halls, and they’ll tell you, ‚We need to do usability better, push this or that frontier.‘

It is impossible to reason without arriving at a Supreme Being.

An inability to handle language is not the same thing as stupidity.

I’ll never make it, it will never happen, because they’re never going to hear me ‚cause they’re screaming all the time.

Really advanced civilization is based on advances in energy.

But if thought corrupts language, language can also corrupt thought.

Silence is the most perfect expression of scorn.

It’s time for the human race to enter the solar system.

Prayer is simply a two-way conversation between you and God.

I do not think I should care to go on worshipping a Madonna even if she did wink. One cannot make much out of a wink. We want something more than that from the object of our adoration.

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.

No grand idea was ever born in a conference, but a lot of foolish ideas have died there.

I do think there should be some regulations on AI.

I feel that the best companies are started not because the founder wanted a company but because the founder wanted to change the world… If you decide you want to found a company, you maybe start to develop your first idea. And hire lots of workers.

God doesn’t dwell in the wooden, stony or earthen idols. His abode is in our feelings, our thoughts.

SPAM is taking e-mail, which is a wonderful tool, and exploiting the idea that it’s very inexpensive to send mail.

The royal road to a man’s heart is to talk to him about the things he treasures most.

The way to see by Faith is to shut the Eye of Reason.

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

Everyone I look up to is bringing me into the tech world. You’d be surprised by all the music people in it, invested in it.

Take advantage of the years of pioneering efforts. You might find this boring, as the young want to rush head on, as it were.

Words, words, words! They shut one off from the universe. Three quarters of the time one’s never in contact with things, only with the beastly words that stand for them.

If women believed in their husbands they would be a good deal happier and also a good deal more foolish.

I am amazed at the wonders of technology and am grateful for the ways in which we are able to use it to share the Gospel around the world.

Only God who made us can touch us and change us and save us from ourselves.

The best way to resolve any problem in the human world is for all sides to sit down and talk.

In one case out of a hundred a point is excessively discussed because it is obscure; in the ninety-nine remaining it is obscure because it is excessively discussed.

America is a country of inventors, and the greatest of inventors are the newspaper men.

The most important single ingredient in the formula of success is knowing how to get along with people.

If you’re not failing every now and again, it’s a sign you’re not doing anything very innovative.

Whoever feels predestined to see and not to believe will find all believers too noisy and pushy: he guards against them.

I always was a Christian… whatsoever a man thinks in his heart is who he is.

Entrepreneurs are natural problem-solvers, which means that we always have ideas for new businesses popping into our heads. Having a lot of options is great, but sometimes it can be hard to focus on one when you are keen to move onto the next.

Perhaps one day we will have machines that can cope with approximate task descriptions, but in the meantime, we have to be very prissy about how we tell computers to do things.

Connectivity is a human right.

People are generally amazed that I would take an interest in any forum that would require me to stop talking for three hours.

There are two great forces, God’s force of good and the devil’s force of evil, and I believe Satan is alive and he is working, and he is working harder than ever, and we have many mysteries that we don’t understand.
