You affect the world by what you browse.

Web pages are designed for people. For the Semantic Web, we need to look at existing databases.

Intellectual property is an important legal and cultural issue. Society as a whole has complex issues to face here: private ownership vs. open source, and so on.

We shouldn't build a technology to colour, or grey out, what people say. The media in general is balanced, although there are a lot of issues to be addressed that the media rightly pick up on.

The Web as I envisaged it, we have not seen it yet. The future is still so much bigger than the past.

Physicists analyze systems. Web scientists, however, can create the systems.

We need diversity of thought in the world to face the new challenges.

Sites need to be able to interact in one single, universal space.

I think IT projects are about supporting social systems-about communications between people and machines. They tend to fail due to cultural issues.

We could say we want the Web to reflect a vision of the world where everything is done democratically. To do that, we get computers to talk with each other in such a way as to promote that ideal.

The Mobile Web Initiative is important - information must be made seamlessly available on any device.

Celebrity damages private life.

The Google algorithm was a significant development. I've had thank-you emails from people whose lives have been saved by information on a medical website or who have found the love of their life on a dating website.

Customers need to be given control of their own data-not being tied into a certain manufacturer so that when there are problems they are always obliged to go back to them.

The important thing is the diversity available on the Web.

The Domain Name Server (DNS) is the Achilles heel of the Web. The important thing is that it's managed responsibly.

Most larger companies now see that for the market to grow, Web infrastructure must be royalty-free.

Compared even to the development of the phone or TV, the Web developed very quickly.

The Semantic Web is not a separate Web but an extension of the current one, in which information is given well-defined meaning, better enabling computers and people to work in cooperation.

The challenge is to manage the Web in an open way-not too much bureaucracy, not subject to political or commercial pressures. The U.S. should demonstrate that it is prepared to share control with the world.

In '93 to '94, every browser had its own flavor of HTML. So it was very difficult to know what you could put in a Web page and reliably have most of your readership see it.

Data is a precious thing and will last longer than the systems themselves.

You affect the world by what you browse.

IT professionals have a responsibility to understand the use of standards and the importance of making Web applications that work with any kind of device.

Web users ultimately want to get at data quickly and easily. They don't care as much about attractive sites and pretty design.

Whatever the device you use for getting your information out, it should be the same information.

What is a Web year now, about three months? And when people can browse around, discover new things, and download them fast, when we all have agents - then Web years could slip by before human beings can notice.

When it comes to professionalism, it makes sense to talk about being professional in IT. Standards are vital so that IT professionals can provide systems that last.

The most important thing that was new was the idea of URI-or URL, that any piece of information anywhere should have an identifier, which will allow you to get hold of it.

Anyone who has lost track of time when using a computer knows the propensity to dream, the urge to make dreams come true and the tendency to miss lunch.

The Web is now philosophical engineering. Physics and the Web are both about the relationship between the small and the large.

Everybody who runs a Web site knows we're not assured of compatibility, and we could end up with a split.

I basically wrote the code and the specs and documentation for how the client and server talked to each other.

Any good software engineer will tell you that a compiler and an interpreter are interchangeable.

That idea of URL was the basic clue to the universality of the Web. That was the only thing I insisted upon.

Johnny Winter is one of the best blues players in the world. He's very underrated.

The world is... the natural setting of, and field for, all my thoughts and all my explicit perceptions. Truth does not inhabit only the inner man, or more accurately, there is no inner man, man is in the world, and only in the world does he know himself.

You are not here merely to make a living. You are here in order to enable the world to live more amply, with greater vision, with a finer spirit of hope and achievement. You are here to enrich the world, and you impoverish yourself if you forget the errand.

Well concerning the world records that I did, I think it helps a lot to me, yeah. I think it's a very individual thing because I heard some people say, like, oh I don't like it at all. But I definitely, for me it really made a big difference.

Christians should never fail to sense the operation of an angelic glory. It forever eclipses the world of demonic powers, as the sun does a candle's light.

I do believe there are leaders who are like lightning and they come along and they lead. The Lincolns of the world, the Alexander the Greats, they do exist. They have existed.

The people of England are the most enthusiastic in the world.

You've got to realize. In the western world, regardless of what color you are, what title the music is, it's all played by the same notes.

Most fathers don't see the war within the daughter, her struggles with conflicting images of the idealized and flawed father, her temptation both to retreat to Daddy's lap and protection and to push out of his embrace to that of beau and the world beyond home.

Scientific corporations might well become almost independent states and be enabled to undertake their largest experiments without consulting the outside world - a world which would be less and less able to judge what the experiments were about.

To see a world in a grain of sand and heaven in a wild flower Hold infinity in the palms of your hand and eternity in an hour.

The painter... does not fit the paints to the world. He most certainly does not fit the world to himself. He fits himself to the paint. The self is the servant who bears the paintbox and its inherited contents.

The world has fundamentally changed. It fundamentally changed when the Berlin Wall came down and the 'evil empire' ceased to exist. We are engaged around the world whether we like it or not.

I think having eight kids evens things out a bit. You learn about the world; you learn about the world; you learn you've got to get along. We're all - if anything - very adjustable.
