When you go onto the internet, if you really rummage around randomly then how do you hope to find something of any of value?

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.

The money is the only source of smile for the poor.

There are things in this life that you must face alone. Birth is one of them-death is another.

Mixing one's wines may be a mistake, but old and new wisdom mix admirably.

If you are wise, live as you can; if you cannot, live as you would.

I don't believe music can be free unless it has something to be free from.

Americans should be free to recognize our religious heritage; doing that is not the same as creating a government-sponsored religion.

I do my best when I'm surrounded by women. I enjoyed that on the Charlie's Angels experience.

I wait. I compose myself. My self is a thing I must now compose, as one composes a speech. What I must present is a made thing, not something born.

My celebrity status allows me an opportunity, allows me a pulpit to preach and reach out to the people. Not even always preaching but just leading, motivating them by being a leader.

I remember things being more clearer, at one time things were more real.
