He who angers millions will make billions. Time wounds heels. The law is the mistress of the rich. The only person in abundant supply is the Universal Incompetent. In the first place, God made idiots. It was for practice. Then he made school boards. Education is what survives after what has been learnt has been forgotten. It takes about eight uninterrupted minutes for our brains to get into a really creative state. A baby is an alimentary canal with a loud voice at one end and no responsibility at the other. Status quo is Latin for the mess we are in. Love is only a dirty trick played on us to achieve the continuation of the species. Life is a do-it-yourself project; do it to the best of your ability. Innovation – a term that – at least when used in the computer and software industries – generally means creative theft of ideas by big companies. Men never do evil so completely and cheerfully as when they do it from religious conviction. Show me a secular person, and I will show you a liar. The way to gain a good reputation is to endeavor to be what you desire to appear. The only thing worse than people talking about you is people NOT talking about you.

People are to be paid for the work they do, not for the time spent. The only things that are certain in life are death and taxes. The smallest minority on earth is the individual. Those who deny individual rights cannot claim to be defenders of minorities. Technology is dominated by two types of people: those who understand what they do not manage, and those who manage what they do not understand. I cannot understand why people are frightened of new ideas. I am frightened of the old ones. Ideas are the factors that lift civilization. They create revolutions. There is more dynamite in an idea than in many bombs. Technology has the shelf life of a banana I wish developing great products was as easy as writing a check. If that were the case, Microsoft would have some great products. IT companies have bad internal IT for one simple reason: Anyone with talent is billable. The problems of the world cannot possibly be solved by skeptics or cynics whose horizons are limited by the obvious realities. We need men who can dream of things that never were. Eternity is a very long time, especially towards the end. The secret of being a bore is to tell everything. Interpretation of a thing can kill the experience of it. IWhat is the difference between genius and stupidity? Never ever say never ever.
