Acceptance is the spiritual hammock.

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

The goal of the Web is to serve humanity. We build it now so that those who come to it later will be able to create things that we cannot ourselves imagine.

Innovation is serendipity, so you don't know what people will make.

The power of the Web is in its universality. Access by everyone regardless of disability is an essential aspect.

The web is more a social creation than a technical one. I designed it for a social effect - to help people work together - and not as a technical toy.

The Web does not just connect machines, it connects people.

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

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.

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

There is a big difference between positive thinking and wishful thinking. Sitting around and wishing is definitely not going to create a miracle in your life.

Inside myself is a place where I live all alone and that is where I renew my springs that never dry up.

I've always said there are four words that every child in the world knows, and those are, "Tell me a story,." Even the people who wrote the Bible knew that. They told stories, like the story of Noah.

The happiest people are focused on living their own life (not someone else's) as well as possible.

Never give up on what makes you smile

For Jesus, there are no countries to be conquered, no ideologies to be imposed, no people to be dominated. There are only children, women and men to be loved.

It's your thoughts behind the words you speak that create your attitude.

Sometimes nothin' can be a real cool hand.

Something pretty mysterious had to give rise to the origin of the universe.

By the time you become the leader of a country, someone else makes all the decisions.
