When it comes to helping out, I don't believe in doing it for the media attention. My goal is to support the organizations that need help.

In the first eight or so years at Microsoft, we were always chained to our terminals, and after I got sick the first time, I decided that I was going to be more adventurous and explore more of the world.

Sometimes it's very difficult to find fresh fruit on the road.

I was in a town of about 10,000 people, and a shipping container with a rusty microscope was their medical clinic.

Technology is notorious for engrossing people so much that they don't always focus on balance and enjoy life at the same time.

The best museums and museum exhibits about science or technology give you the feeling that, hey, this is interesting, but maybe I could do something here, too.

I'm a very private person that prefers a low profile.
