The fate of the universe is a decision yet to be made, one which we will intelligently consider when the time is right.

We're democratizing the tools of creativity.

Intuition is linear; our imaginations are weak. Even the brightest of us only extrapolate from what we know now; for the most part, we're afraid to really stretch.

Inventing is a lot like surfing: you have to anticipate and catch the wave at just the right moment.

Sometimes people talk about conflict between humans and machines, and you can see that in a lot of science fiction. But the machines were creating are not some invasion from Mars. We create these tools to expand our own reach.

Mobile phones are misnamed. They should be called gateways to human knowledge.

By the time of the Singularity, there won't be a distinction between humans and technology. This is not because humans will have become what we think of as machines today, but rather machines will have progressed to be like humans and beyond. Technology will be the metaphorical opposable thumb that enables our next step in evolution.
