Beware of those who try to sell you simple answers to complex questions.

I think you should live your life so that the maximum number of people will attend your funeral.

There are very few personal problems that cannot be solved through a suitable application of high explosives.

Computers and rocket ships are examples of invention, not of understanding. ... All that is needed to build machines is the knowledge that when one thing happens, another thing happens as a result. It's an accumulation of simple patterns. A dog can learn patterns. There is no "why&rdqo"; in those examples. We don't understand why electricity travels. We don't know why light travels at a constant speed forever. All we can do is observe and record patterns.

Some people fear that technology will become more engaging than live human interactions. That's silly; technology is already way more interesting than other people.

Everyone says there's a lack of leadership in the world these days. I think we should all be thankful, because the only reason for leadership is to convince people to do things that are either dangerous (like invading another country) or stupid (working extra hard without extra pay).

Am I getting smart with you? How would you know?
