A patent, or invention, is any assemblage of technologies or ideas that you can put together that nobody put together that way before. That's how the patent office defines it. That's an invention

In some cases, inventions prohibit innovation because we're so caught up in playing with the technology, we forget about the fact that it was supposed to be important.

If you're going to fail, you might as well fail at the big ones.

I consider high-speed data transmission an invention that became a major innovation. It changed the way we all communicate

New ideas in technology are literally a dime-a-dozen, or cheaper than that
