The day before something is a breakthrough, it’s a crazy idea.

What opened up the American West was the fact that you owned the real estate. You owned the gold mines, the oil wells. The creation of these, back then, million dollar industries drove the railroads and eventually the airlines to provide this kind of transportation.

If you give people unlimited time and money, they'll do things the same old way. But if they have to achieve the goal in a brief time, they'll either give up or try something new.

What is grit? Grit is refusing to give up. It's persistence. It's making your own luck.

If the risk is fully aligned with your purpose and mission, then it's worth considering.

My childhood dreams were focused on being part of the effort to make humanity a multiplanetary species.

My goal is there's a new generation of cars. And people can say we're living in a new day and age. A new day and age of cars that are beautiful, affordable, safe, and of course every car gets over 100 mpg, why wouldn't it.
