We must develop as quickly as possible technologies that make possible a direct connection between brain and computer, so that artificial brains contribute to human intelligence rather than opposing it.

My goal is simple. It is a complete understanding of the universe, why it is as it is and why it exists at all.

I think the discovery of supersymmetric partners for the known particles would revolutionize our understanding of the universe.

Why are we here? Where do we come from? Traditionally, these are questions for philosophy, but philosophy is dead.

Winning the Super Bowl was obviously a great one, but the joy I felt of going to the Super Bowl, it was what I felt about the Pittsburgh Steelers and where we came from, the history of us to that point.

Many a happiness in life, as many a disaster, can be due to chance, but the peace within us can never be governed by chance.

When you are gestating, you feel full of life, you feel full of joy, you feel full of fantasy, of stories.

So I never spend a lot of time analyzing why people respond to my work. But I think that it's just the joy, a passion for life, that I think has always been in my characters. Beyond that, I'm just grateful for it.
