We are still in the very beggining of the Internet. Let's use it wisely.

Imagine a world in which every single person on the planet is given free access to the sum of all human knowledge. That's what we're doing.

I'm a big advocate of freedom: freedom of speech, freedom of expression, freedom of thought.

My original concept was to provide a free encyclopedia for every single person in the world.

The goal is to give people a free encyclopedia to every person in the world, in their own language. Not just in a 'free beer' kind of way, but also in the free speech kind of way.

The real struggle is not between the right and the left but between the party of the thoughtful and the party of the jerks.

Most people assume the fights are going to be the left versus the right, but it always is the reasonable versus the jerks.

Of course as a small country you're not necessarily in the strongest negotiating position unless you're negotiating with other small countries.

It is only the goodness of God sensibly experienced by us which opens our mouth to celebrate His praise.

Instruction is important.

One thing with me, and every goal I've had - in the sport of swimming, my mother didn't know my goals. The only person that knew my goals were my coaches.

A man should control his life. Mine is controlling me.

Be personal. Be relevant. Be specific.
