At 13, I realized that I could fix anything electronic. It was amazing, I could just do it. I started a business repairing radios. It grew to be one of the largest in Philadelphia.

The food we ate was Indian, and both my mother and father were very deep into the ancient philosophy of India, so it could well have been an Indian household.

I had studied violin from age 7 to 14.

I really wanted to do research. That has never changed.

No one ever won a chess game by betting on each move. Sometimes you have to move backward to get a step forward.

The excitement level for me working on projects is really not a bit different from when I was 26.

I'm forming a charitable institution for education.
