Feel the feelings and drop the story.

Deep down in the human spirit, there is a reservoir of courage. It is always available, always waiting to be discovered.

It isn't what happens to us that causes us to suffer; it's what we say to ourselves about what happens.

All you need to know is that the future is wide open and you are about to create it by what you do.

You are the sky. Everything else - it’s just the weather.

Let your curiosity be greater than your fear.

Cyberspace still exists at the pleasure of the real world.

Part of the problem is when we bring in a new technology we expect it to be perfect in a way that we don't expect the world that we're familiar with to be perfect.

I became a real free market fanatic. I'm probably less so now than even two or three years ago.
