I’m nauseatingly pro-American. I would have come here from any country. The U.S. is where great things are possible.
Elon Musk

What I'm trying to do is, is to make a significant difference in space flight. And help make space flight accessible to almost anyone.
Elon Musk

Self-driving cars are the natural extension of active safety and obviously something we should do.

If anyone thinks they'd rather be in a different part of history, they're probably not a very good student of history. Life sucked in the old days. People knew very little, and you were likely to die at a young age of some horrible disease. You'd probably have no teeth by now. It would be particularly awful if you were a woman.

We're running the most dangerous experiment in history right now, which is to see how much carbon dioxide the atmosphere can handle before there is an environmental catastrophe.

Fear is a hard thing to deal with. I feel it quite strongly. If I think something is important enough, I'll make myself do it in spite of fear. But it can really sap the will. I hate fear, I wish I had it less.

Yeah, well I think anyone who likes fast cars will love the Tesla. And it has fantastic handling by the way. I mean this car will crush a Porsche on the track, just crush it. So if you like fast cars, you'll love this car. And then oh, by the way, it happens to be electric and it's twice the efficiency of a Prius.

Life is too short for long-term grudges.

I'm glad to see that BMW is bringing an electric car to market. That's cool.
Elon Musk

What I'm trying to do is to maximise the probability of the future being better.
Elon Musk
Image
I'm reasonably optimistic about the future, especially the future of the United States - for the century, at least.
Elon Musk
Image
I came to the conclusion that we should aspire to increase the scope and scale of human consciousness in order to better understand what questions to ask. Really, the only thing that makes sense is to strive for greater collective enlightenment.
Elon Musk
Image
I always invest my own money in the companies that I create. I don't believe in the whole thing of just using other people's money. I don't think that's right. I'm not going to ask other people to invest in something if I'm not prepared to do so myself.

Land on Mars, a round-trip ticket - half a million dollars. It can be done.
Elon Musk
Image
There's nothing - I've bought everything I want. I don't like yachts or anything you know, I'm not a yacht person, and I've got pretty much the nicest plane I'd want to have.
Elon Musk
Image
I think the high-tech industry is used to developing new things very quickly. It's the Silicon Valley way of doing business: You either move very quickly and you work hard to improve your product technology, or you get destroyed by some other company.
Elon Musk
Image
There's a tremendous bias against taking risks. Everyone is trying to optimize their ass-covering.
Elon Musk
Image
The reality is gas prices should be much more expensive then they are because we're not incorporating the true damage to the environment and the hidden costs of mining oil and transporting it to the U.S. Whenever you have an unpriced externality, you have a bit of a market failure, to the degree that eternality remains unpriced.

Silicon Valley has some of the smartest engineers and technology business people in the world.

I could either watch it happen or be a part of it.
