When you write a piece of software you assume a certain type of hardware. If you assume hardware that's too powerful then you can't sell many copies cause very few people have that machine. If you assume hardware that's too simple your product can't do as much.

Bill Gates

We're not in hardware for hardware's sake. We're in hardware to be able to express all our platform and productivity software in a way that's unique.

Satya Nadella

I realized I never played a character that was skilled at anything, or skilled at anything that I couldn't become skilled at.

Jonah Hill

One of the worst things anybody can do is assume. I think fools assume. If people have really got it together, they never assume anything. They believe, they work hard, and they prepare- but they don't assume.

Mike Krzyzewski

Most of my colleagues go on backpacking trips when they have to do some thinking. I go to a good hardware store and head for the oiliest, dustiest corners... If they're really good, they don't hassle me. They let me wander around and think. Young hardware clerks have a lot of hubris. They think they can help you find anything... Old hardware clerks have learned the hard way that nothing in a hardware store ever gets bought for its nominal purpose. You buy something that was designed to do one thing, and you use it for another.

Neal Stephenson

If love is great, then it is worth fighting for.” “What if it is immoral somehow? Forbidden?” “Forbidden? But my father’s love for my mother was forbidden, or at least against the law. Or do mean if she is married, or a vampire?” “Or a married vampire.” “Well, nevertheless,” Will said, with a grin. “One should fight on. Love conquers all.” Will and Jem

Cassandra Clare

There is a maxim about the universe which I always tell my students: That which is not explicitly forbidden is guaranteed to occur.

Lawrence M. Krauss

By being able to write a genome and plug it into an organism, the software, if you will, changes the hardware.

Barry Schuler

History has taught us: never underestimate the amount of money, time, and effort someone will expend to thwart a security system. It's always better to assume the worst. Assume your adversaries are better than they are. Assume science and technology will soon be able to do things they cannot yet. Give yourself a margin for error. Give yourself more security than you need today. When the unexpected happens, you'll be glad you did.

Bruce Schneier

Technology is an inherent democratizer. Because of the evolution of hardware and software, you’re able to scale up almost anything. It means that in our lifetime everyone may have tools of equal power.

Sergey Brin

I believe that every human being is sufficiently depraved that when we get to Heaven, no one will be able to say, 'I merited this.'

Dallas Willard

I believe that every human being is sufficiently depraved that when we get to heaven, no one will be able to say, I merited this.

Dallas Willard

I can't stand callow amateurs who aren't sufficiently interested in the craft of advertising to assume the posture of students.

David Ogilvy

Samsung and Apple seem to think that they're going to provide everything. Apple believes services will drive hardware, while Google wants to own each user regardless of hardware, so you have differing philosophies.

Noam Bardin

As long as I am forbidden to see the MSPAP, my children will be forbidden to take the MSPAP.

Kathy Szeliga

In the deepest hour of the night I confess to myself three things; I would die if I was forbidden to write, forbidden to love, or forbidden to fashion....love each other, and celebrate the art and lifestyle of music.

Lady Gaga
