We live in a very complex world.

Science fiction does not remain fiction for long. And certainly not on the Internet.

Information flow is what the Internet is about. Information sharing is power. If you don't share your ideas, smart people can't do anything about them, and you'll remain anonymous and powerless.

I'd like to know what the Internet is going to look like in 2050. Thinking about it makes me wish I were eight years old.

We had no idea that this would turn into a global and public infrastructure.

We never, ever in the history of mankind have had access to so much information so quickly and so easily.

We will have more Internet, larger numbers of users, more mobile access, more speed, more things online and more appliances we can control over the Internet.

I expect to see a lot of household appliances on the Net by 2010, as well as autos and other mobile devices.

They say a year in the Internet business is like a dog year.. equivalent to seven years in a regular person's life. In other words, it's evolving fast and faster.

Engineers are really good at labeling and branding things. If we had named Kentucky Fried Chicken, it would have been Hot Dead Birds.

Surf the Web is a happy coincidence.

I wonder in what way I would function as a person, in a society without ever attending school. I'd be myself.

Amsterdam was a great surprise to me. I had always thought of Venice as the city of canals it had never entered my mind that I should find similar conditions in a Dutch town.

Whatever torch we kindle, and whatever space it may illuminate, our horizon will always remain encircled by the depth of night.

I am not... totally unreceptive to colour providing it makes its appearance quietly, deferentially, and without undue fanfare.

...one of the best things about running is that no matter how fast you've run in the past, running fast in the future does not come easily or with any guarantees.

I don't know what it is about the shower that generates creative thoughts. Maybe it's the hot water. Maybe it's being unencumbered even by the restriction of clothing.

Color is a very personal thing. You need to make sure to choose a color that makes you happy. But I don't recommend accent walls - choose a color you can live with on all four walls.

I love Buster Keaton. I was a big fan of the stunt shows at Universal Studios. I'm a huge Cirque du Soleil nut.

But contrary to what some people seem to think, I was never a bully. I was just a hard man.

Let him that desires to see others happy, make haste to give while his gift can be enjoyed, and remember that every moment of delay takes away something from the value of his benefaction.
