More quotes by Elon Musk
Constantly seek criticism. A well thought out critique of what you're doing is as valuable as gold
Elon Musk
Trying to read our DNA is like trying to understand software code - with only 90% of the code riddled with errors. It's very difficult in that case to understand and predict what that software code is going to do.
Elon Musk
What most people know but don't realize they know is that the world is almost entirely solar-powered already. If the sun wasn't there, we'd be a frozen ice ball at three degrees Kelvin, and the sun powers the entire system of precipitation. The whole ecosystem is solar-powered.
Elon Musk
I think most of the important stuff on the Internet has been built. There will be continued innovation, for sure, but the great problems of the Internet have essentially been solved.
Elon Musk
When I was in college, I wanted to be involved in things that would change the world.
Elon Musk
Does the logic connect? What are the range of probably outcomes? You want to figure out what those probabilities are and ideally be the House. It's fine to gamble, as long as you're the House. Also, listen to critical feedback, particularly from friends. Generally they will be thinking it but they won't tell you.
Elon Musk
Failure is an option here. If things are not failing, you are not innovating enough.
Elon Musk
Starting and growing a business is as much about the innovation, drive and determination of the people who do it as it is about the product they sell.
Elon Musk
Government isn't that good at rapid advancement of technology. It tends to be better at funding basic research. To have things take off, you've got to have commercial companies do it.
Elon Musk
We need to be super careful with AI. Potentially more dangerous than nukes.
Elon Musk
Biofuels such as ethanol require enormous amounts of cropland and end up displacing either food crops or natural wilderness, neither of which is good.
Elon Musk
I think you should always be seeking negative feedback.
Elon Musk
I think life on Earth must be about more than just solving problems... It's got to be something inspiring, even if it is vicarious.
Elon Musk
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.
Elon Musk
The extension of life beyond Earth is the most important thing we can do as a species.
Elon Musk
An asteroid or a supervolcano could certainly destroy us, but we also face risks the dinosaurs never saw: An engineered virus, nuclear war, inadvertent creation of a micro black hole, or some as-yet-unknown technology could spell the end of us.
Elon Musk
Even if there's a zombie apocalypse, you'll still be able to travel using the Tesla Supercharging system.
Elon Musk
In order for us to have a future that's exciting and inspiring, it has to be one where we're a space-bearing civilization.
Elon Musk
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
In the case of Apple, they did originally do production internally, but then along came unbelievably good outsourced manufacturing from companies like Foxconn. We don't have that in the rocket business. There's no Foxconn in the rocket business.
