I don't like the idea of capitalism anyway. Because it's not capital we are talking about; it's knowledge and creating well-being. Because I mean, that gets people on the wrong track when it's capital and how we allocate capital - no. How do we create the Republic of Science in America? How do we have a system of mutual benefits where people succeed by helping others improve their lives? So I don't like that at all.

If you never failed, then you're probably not doing very much.

When currying favor with Washington is seen as a much easier way to make money, businesses inevitably begin to compete with rivals in securing government largess, rather than in winning customers.

If you have methods without principles, you're going to have trouble. But if you develop methods based on principles, then you can make progress.

If the legislation helps people improve their lives, then that's great because that's the ultimate goal of all of this.

My father would always say "learn everything you can and whenever you can, because you never know when it'll come in handy."

I've been blessed by learning certain principles and values that transformed my life and enabled me to accomplish more than I really had the ability to do or ever dream possible. And so I decided that I wanted to give as many other people as possible the opportunity to learn these ideas and transform their lives as I had.
