The number of transistors on an integrated circuit will double in about 18 months.

One thing a leader does is to remove the stigma of mistakes.

No physical quantity can continue to change exponentially forever. Your job is delaying forever.

Moore's law is really about economics.

I remember the difficulty we had in the beginning replacing magnetic cores in memories and eventually we had both cost and performance advantages. But it wasn't at all clear in the beginning.

With engineering, I view this year's failure as next year's opportunity to try it again. Failures are not something to be avoided. You want to have them happen as quickly as you can so you can make progress rapidly.

The technology at the leading edge changes so rapidly that you have to keep current after you get out of school. I think probably the most important thing is having good fundamentals.
