What's very important from my point of view is that there is one web … Anyone that tries to chop it into two will find that their piece looks very boring.

The Semantic Web is not a separate Web but an extension of the current one, in which information is given well-defined meaning, better enabling computers and people to work in cooperation.

The Domain Name Server (DNS) is the Achilles heel of the Web. The important thing is that it's managed responsibly.

The goal of the Web is to serve humanity. We build it now so that those who come to it later will be able to create things that we cannot ourselves imagine.

Innovation is serendipity, so you don't know what people will make.

The power of the Web is in its universality. Access by everyone regardless of disability is an essential aspect.

The web is more a social creation than a technical one. I designed it for a social effect - to help people work together - and not as a technical toy.

The Web does not just connect machines, it connects people.

I basically wrote the code and the specs and documentation for how the client and server talked to each other.

In '93 to '94, every browser had its own flavor of HTML. So it was very difficult to know what you could put in a Web page and reliably have most of your readership see it.

The Web as I envisaged it, we have not seen it yet. The future is still so much bigger than the past.

Knowledge comes but wisdom lingers.

I don't do the gym and I don't diet. I'm vegetarian but I don't diet.

My dad has worked so hard his whole life. He doesn't deserve to see his daughters going out embarrassing themselves and flashing their knickers. I want to make my parents proud.

I spot a little stranger standing across the room, my brain takes a vacation just to give my heart more room.

Joe Torre would tell you to make sure you can hit the ball on the outside part of the plate

The way I understand it, the Russians are sort of a combination of evil and incompetence... sort of like the Post Office with tanks.

Sometimes we meet people and are so symbiotic with them, it's as if we are one person, with one mind, one destiny

My mother wasn't rational those last years; if she had been, she would have been horrified by her own behavior.

Brutal men with unlimited power are the same all over the world

It's your eyes. They're ... more serious than they used to be. Like they've seen things they shouldn't have.
