I feel my story has been exercised very thoroughly and very frequently.

I'm doing a little consulting. I'm somewhat retired, still a director of a company or two.

I feel my story has been exercised very thoroughly and very frequently.

The groups that have awarded them are all a little different. It's a little hard to single out any one for that, but I think the dedication of this building would have to go toward the top of the list.

It's true that the original idea was mine, but what you see today is the work of probably tens of thousands of the world's best engineers, all concentrating on improving the product, reducing the cost, things of that sort.

They were the largest semiconductor maker in the world up until about 1980. I'm not sure that that can be re-gained again, but their progress in the last few years has been very impressive.

This could be done in part, because the equipment was very inexpensive. Not much money was involved in tooling so that basic changes of that type could be accomplished.

The number of parts that were required were just prohibitive.

I think I thought it would be important for electronics as we knew it then, but that was a much simpler business and electronics was mostly radio and television and the first computers.

How are we doing in the electronics field as opposed to, you know, we hear how advanced the Japanese are? Do you think we're still pretty competitive? Oh, yes.

Well, the thought that everybody might have a personal computer at their desk or their home was certainly not on the mainstream of anybody's activity at that time.

Somewhere in that 20-year period, I would assume that there will be some basically new approach that will begin to cut into it, but it's got a long time.

Well, it's very dangerous to project, but it's clear that the existing technology has some more years to go.

Well, the big products in electronics in the '50s were radio and television. The first big computers were just beginning to come in and represented the most logical market for us to work in.

Today, people tend to credit me with having the original idea and made the first circuits.

I think the varied backgrounds in the beginning were a plus. It took a while for people to understand what they were trying to do and get started, but it did provide for a lot of new ideas.

There was a space program before there was integrated circuits.

They're very strong in memory. Didn't do very much in microprocessors or digital signal processing.

I'm sure there will continue to be exciting new products and major changes, but it looks as if the existing technology has a great deal of room to grow and prosper.

It's also somewhat in the center of a number of things that will be useful to the company.

The first calculators tended to sell for $400 or $500. Today, you can get a pretty good one for 4 or $5.

It was really a very small company when I started and it changed very rapidly during those first periods.

I think it's doing very well. I'm pleased to see the concentration on semiconductors. I think this will help.

My own interest developed because I thought it was a fascinating subject and something I wanted to pursue.

Five years ago, people were crying and feeling the Japanese were about to take over the Earth. I don't hear that kind of talk anymore.

So youre tired of living Feel like you might give in Well dont. Its not your time

It was a thrill for me to work with Pete Fountain.

I can feel pretty critical of people, and I understand that sort of feeling of when you're going through something that's painful, taking it out on the world and projecting onto other people, finding faults with other people because it's harder to find faults in yourself.

To uncover your true potential you must first find your own limits and then you have to have the courage to blow past them.

I could have ended the war in a month. I could have made North Vietnam look like a mud puddle.

The first magic of love is our ignorance that it can ever end.

I think everyone has knockout power. I mean, it's the heavyweight division.

Looks can be deceiving but let's not fall into the looks trap.

I'm a liberal where children are concerned, a libertarian where adults are concerned - and thinking very seriously about running for the House of Representatives, for whatever that's worth.

You know, it cuts both ways... no one wants to lose a job, but everybody wants to work.

On December 18, 1940, Hitler signed Directive Number 21, better known as Operation Barbarossa.

Why should I paint dead fish, onions and beer glasses? Girls are so much prettier.

A life of reaction is a life of slavery, intellectually and spiritually. One must fight for a life of action, not reaction.

Learn when and how to use different data structures and their algorithms in your own code. This is harder as a student, as the problem assignments you'll work through just won't impart this knowledge. That's fine.

If you want to see the sunshine, you have to weather the storm.

The thinner the ice, the more anxious is everyone to see whether it will bear.

The Make in India campaign has taken off and is backed with skill development. It is going to open new vistas for employment for the youth.

I cry at films and TV and even adverts.

One summer vacation, I carried water to the town market to sell it, and I used some of the money I made to help a neighbour.

Sure, I acted in films in the Third Reich, entertainment films, which distracted countless people inside and outside Germany from daily life during war.

Becoming a father, I think it inevitably changes your perspective of life. I don't get nearly enough sleep. And the simplest things in life are completely satisfying. I find you don't have to do as much, like you don't go on as many outings.

To achieve greatness let us be helpful and grateful to others.

The atmosphere of libraries, lecture rooms and laboratories is dangerous to those who shut themselves up in them too long. It separates us from reality like a fog.

The illustrations in picture books are the first paintings most children see, and because of that, they are incredibly important. What we see and share at that age stays with us for life.
