Mars is the only place in the solar system where it's possible for life to become multi-planetarian.

The extension of life beyond Earth is the most important thing we can do as a species.

You have to be pretty driven to make it happen. Otherwise, you will just make yourself miserable.

I think that's the single best piece of advice: constantly think about how you could be doing things better and questioning yourself.

I'm extremely confident that solar will be at least a plurality of power, and most likely a majority... in less than 20 years.

The only reason I was able to accomplish things is the great people willing to work with me. A company is a group of people organized to create a product or service, and that product or service is only as good as the people in the company - and how excited they are about creating it. I do want to recognize a ton of super-talented people. Without them, I would have accomplished very little. I just happen to be the face of the companies.

I think it's very important to have a feedback loop, where you're constantly thinking about what you've done and how you could be doing it better.
