The story of the entrepreneur... is the story of forward progress, of pursuing one's dreams and goals no matter how outlandish they seem to others. The entrepreneur, like the pioneer, pushes boundaries in search of what's new, what's next. Sometimes, he brings the whole society with him, rushing forward together into a next phase of our communal human life.

Actually, I've never thought myself as being a particularly hard worker. I've always worked, and I guess my mind is busy all the time. I've been in a lot of things just because of my own intellectual curiosity.

I'm interested in personalities, not political parties.

I debated free trade in college. I came out as a free trader. I'm a free markets guy. I'm an Adam Smith guy.

I think it's good politics to beat up on big companies and rich people.

Al Gore is an heir to the old czars and commissars. He never saw a regulation he didn't like.

I'm a monomaniac with one goal: clean air from clean energy.
