It is definitely true that the fundamental enabling technology for electric cars is lithium-ion as a cell chemistry technology. In the absence of that, I don't think it's possible to make an electric car that is competitive with a gasoline car.
Elon Musk
Even if there's a zombie apocalypse, you'll still be able to travel using the Tesla Supercharging system.
Elon Musk
I think there are too many smart people pursuing internet stuff, finance, and law. That is part of the reason why we haven't seen as much innovation.
Elon Musk
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.
Elon Musk
I think long term you can see Tesla establishing factories in Europe, in other parts of the U.S. and in Asia.

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 a fundamental difference, if you sort of look into the future, between a humanity that is a space-faring civilization, that's out there exploring the stars...compared with one where we are forever confined to Earth until some eventual extinction event.
Elon Musk
I think you should always be seeking negative feedback.
Elon Musk
Land on Mars, a round-trip ticket - half a million dollars. It can be done.
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
I would like to die on Mars. Just not on impact.
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
When something is important enough, you do it even if the odds are not in your favor.
Elon Musk
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.
Elon Musk
If we drive down the cost of transportation in space, we can do great things.
