Technology is nothing. What's important is that you have a faith in people, that they're basically good and smart, and if you give them tools, they'll do wonderful things with them.

It's not a faith in technology. It's faith in people.

If you want to be happy, try only to please God, not people.

Creativity is just connecting things. When you ask creative people how they did something, they feel a little guilty because they didn't really do it, they just saw something. It seemed obvious to them after a while. That's because they were able to connect experiences they've had and synthesize new things.

Sometimes you put walls up not to keep people out, but to see who cares enough to break them down.
