I want to see a game designer nominated for a Nobel Prize.

If you make it a game, gamers will play it no matter what your motivation is in making it.

Reality is broken and we need to make it work more like a game.

Every game we play activates our brain, and it's the same brain we have in real life as we have in the game.

A dramatic decrease in oil availability is not at all far-fetched.

Any time I consider a new project, I ask myself, is this pushing the state of gaming toward Nobel Prizes? If it's not, then it's not doing anything important enough to spend my time.

Urgent optimism is the desire to act immediately to tackle an obstacle, combined with the belief that we have a reasonable hope of success.
