I wish we hadn't used all the keys on the keyboard.

But no, I don't generally have trouble with spelling mistakes.

I started to write a new editor not too long ago and had it about half done after two days.

Systems are going to get a lot more sophisticated.

I think the Macintosh proves that everyone can have a bitmapped display.

Document preparation systems will also require large screen displays.

Well, limbo is not a good place to be.

Bitmap display is media compatible with dot matrix or laser printers.

I just don't like to lose what's in the window.

I got tired of people complaining that it was too hard to use UNIX because the editor was too complicated.

Interleaf is based on the formatting process.

The point is that you want to have a system that is responsive.

But with Interleaf I don't even have a spell program.

The fundamental problem with vi is that it doesn't have a mouse and therefore you've got all these commands.

I think editors have to come out of a certain kind of community.

I remember right after Carter got elected, I was sitting in my apartment in Albany, CA, on a Saturday listening to people call Carter and ask stupid questions while I designed the screen editor.

The reason I use ed is that I don't want to lose what's on the screen.

I think the hard thing about all these tools is that it takes a fair amount of effort to become proficient.

Interleaf is very nice. I expect there to be a lot of competition for programs like that.

That lack of programmability is probably what ultimately will doom vi. It can't extend its domain.

So Chuck and I looked at that and we hacked on em for a while, and eventually we ripped the stuff out of em and put some of it into what was then called en, which was really ed with some em features.

It is formatted, and I'm tired of using vi. I get really bored.

I think multiple levels of undo would be wonderful, too.

I had almost rewritten all of the display code for windows, and that was when I gave up.

I think it killed the performance on a lot of the systems in the Labs for years because everyone had their own copy of it, but it wasn't being shared, and so they wasted huge amounts of memory back when memory was expensive.

I wish we hadn't used all the keys on the keyboard.

I think the wonderful thing about vi is that it has such a good market share because we gave it away.

I think one of the interesting things is that vi is really a mode-based editor.

I was surprised about vi going in, though, I didn't know it was in System V.

There are always more smart people outside your company than within it.

There is no surprise more magical than the surprise of being loved: It is God's finger on man's shoulder.

We live on a placid island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was not meant that we should voyage far.

I write songs for people who drive in cars. I really do.

The power to mould the future of the Republic will be in the hands of the journalists of future generations.

When you come off 'The X Factor,' you're more likely to be a failure than a success because people almost want you to fail. There's this kind of feeling that you're separate from everyone else. You get it from artists, people in the industry, people at record labels.

No other single influence has had so great an impact on this earth as the life of Jesus the Christ.

I was at one time a football wife, and there is a certain level of bonding that happens between women who are the wives of football players.

It's amazing how I can just ramble on for hours, isn't it? And so unentertaining or uninteresting. But I can ramble on for hours. It's a sort of terrible gift, isn't it?

The fundamental problem for Republicans when it comes to the environment is that whatever you say is viewed through the prism of suspicion.

As it is my good fortune to be American, I live in the only country that as a matter of policy is pro-Israel regardless of party allegiance; Democrats and Republicans equally unite behind the blue-and-white.

I was the youngest child and got a lot more freedom than my brother and sister. I used to wander, doing my own thing under the radar, but I didn't get in bad, bad trouble.

Luckily, I'm in the position now of being able to play purely because I have the desire to do so.

They say everything you go through in your childhood builds character and inner strength.

If you cast your bread upon the water and you have faith youll get back cash. If you dont have faith youll get soggy bread.

But you know you haven't done it all because you know everything keeps evolving and changing; and you know you can evolve with it if you grow and develop as a human being.

Your hair tends to get used to the product you use. Every month or so I change it out.

I think Rachel Maddow is quite good at what she does. I also think she's a phony who doesn't have the same passion for the truth off-camera that she seems to have on the air.

Many people believe that our lives end not when we die but when the very last person who knew us dies. Memory is part of it, yes, but I think it's much more than memory.

I don't know much about being a millionaire, but I'll bet I'd be darling at it.
