«Я ни с кем больше не дерусь, но с Илоном мы никогда не можем кончить дело миром», – говорит Кимбал. Как-то в ходе особенно яростной стычки по поводу одного бизнес-решения Маск содрал кожу на кулаке, так что ему пришлось делать прививку от столб- няка.

«Однажды я вернулся с чеком на 900 долларов, – вспоминает Мор. – Я вошел в офис и спросил ребят, что мне делать с этими деньгами. Илон перестал колотить по клавиатуре, высунулся из-за монитора и сказал: „Не может быть!“»

Маск и его брат надеялись убедить рестораны, магазины одежды, парикмахерские и т. п., что пришло время обозначить их при- сутствие в Сети. Zip2 должен был стать онлайновым бизнес-каталогом, связанным с картой. Маск объяснял: каждый имеет право знать о том, где расположена ближайшая пиццерия и как туда добраться.

Я думаю, что люди сегодня как-то уж слишком увлеклись всяким там Интернетом, финансами и правом. Это одна из причин, почему у нас мало инноваций.

"Илон – не из тех, кто скажет: „Я знаю, что вы чувствуете, я понимаю вашу точку зрения“, – говорит Джастин. – В нем этого нет. Он не понимает, что есть вещи, очевидные другим людям, но не очевидные ему"

Лучшие умы моего поколения заняты тем, как заставить людей кликать мышью по рекламным объявления,- сказал мне Джефф Хаммербахер, ранее инженер Facebook.- Ужас..

Hip hop is a perfect mix between poetry and boxing.

When you do good work, people will notice you.

I would love to work with Mario Testino. I respect all the work he has done and is doing.

I don't like when I watch a fight in a movie that's perfectly worded and very articulate. If you were able to be that composed, you wouldn't be fighting! Fighting in real life is sloppy.

I learned the value of hard work by working hard.

I don't think that Slaughterhouse-Five was successful movie material. In fact, Vonnegut's books mostly I don't feel are movie material.

I try to give to the poor people for love what the rich could get for money. No, I wouldn't touch a leper for a thousand pounds; yet I willingly cure him for the love of God.

The 1980s will seem like a walk in the park when compared to new global challenges, where annual productivity increases of 6% may not be enough. A combination of software, brains, and running harder will be needed to bring that percentage up to 8% or 9%.

I find in most circumstances, people leave bosses, not companies.

It was a grave mistake to dismantle the Jewish communities in Sinai.

Mostly, what I watch are reality shows and documentaries.

I long to make films. I'm dying to be inside the next film. I always hope there will be another film.

There are fun parts of running a startup and not so fun parts, and Facebook handles the not so fun parts, like infrastructure, spam, sales. The real questions are, how big can 'Instagram' get? Is it 400 million, or bigger? Can it be a viable business if it is that big? These are at the top of the list for everyone in Silicon Valley.

I don't like roller coasters. I don't like bungee jumping. I don't like snow boarding really fast down the hill. I am not someone who is an adrenaline junkie.

Women have a predestination to suffering.

I guess that's what I was: a set of abs. And they lit the abs and shot the abs and sent the abs on their way. The photographer didn't look at my face once. I was humiliated.

I simply did not want my face to be my talent.

Endless effort, endless humility, endless modesty.

Boy, do I got some stories to tell.

A just laicism allows religious freedom. The state does not impose religion but rather gives space to religions with a responsibility toward civil society, and therefore it allows these religions to be factors in building up society.

By telling stories, you objectify your own experience. You separate it from yourself. You pin down certain truths.

The meaning of existence is that you have simply existed at all.

I think, as e-commerce grows as a category, most e-commerce companies are focused on women because they are the decision makers and the consumers. When you think of e-commerce, and fashion is a big part of that, women are much more in tune with what other women are looking for online.

On October 28th, 1887, I became the mother of a girl baby, the very image of its father, at least that is what he said, but who has the temper of its mother.
