I thought boxes were the best toy. When my parents got a new car, I ran to my mother and said, 'Did it come in a box?'

The way that the robotics market is going to grow, at least in the home, is that we'll have a number of different special purpose robots.

I believe one day nano-robots will play an important role in medicine.

In the end, robots do things that people can do. So there is a cost above which you can hire somebody to do it, and that bounds the opportunity.

When I was building robots in the early 1990s, the problems of voice recognition, image understanding, VOIP, even touchscreen technologies - these were robotics problems.

Hollywood likes to imagine robots as mechanical copies of ourselves - which is a terrible idea.

The utility of the robot needs to come first. It's business model over technology.

That's exciting because to create new value in the robot space quickly, you need to stand on the shoulders of other technological developments.

Its going to be interesting to see how society deals with artificial intelligence, but it will definitely be cool.

We learned that very few people care how you accomplish something. Instead, these people care more about whether you create value for your end user.

I think, people are generally willing to imagine robots of all shapes, as humanoid robots are not practical.

Starting the Day— Another chance to be new again. How many of us still wish for that? To be your own sunrise. To awaken like a prayer -both solemn and joyful at still being alive.

I laughed uneasily. “Jeez, you guys make it sound like I was on the brink of death or something. I just fainted.” (Sabina)

Higher than the perfect song For which love longeth, Is the tender fear of wrong, That never wrongeth.

People create stories create people; or rather stories create people create stories.

No matter how prosperous a man was, if he was unable to rule his women and his children (and especially his women) he was not really a man.

I've won every debate I've had with an atheist, and never converted even a single one.

My mantra is if you want to help people accomplish some goal, make it easy.

Don't let your life pass you by, weep not for the memories.

The incarnate Word is with us, is still speaking, is present always, yet leaves no sign but everything that is.
