Engineering is the closest thing to magic that exists in the world.

I do think there is a lot of potential if you have a compelling product and people are willing to pay a premium for that. I think that is what Apple has shown.

There are really two things that have to occur in order for a new technology to be affordable to the mass market. One is you need economies of scale. The other is you need to iterate on the design. You need to go through a few versions.

You could power the entire United States with about 150 to 200 square kilometers of solar panels, the entire United States. Take a corner of Utah... there's not much going on there, I've been there. There's not even radio stations.

I really do encourage other manufacturers to bring electric cars to market. It's a good thing, and they need to bring it to market and keep iterating and improving and make better and better electric cars, and that's what going to result in humanity achieving a sustainable transport future. I wish it was growing faster than it is.

The thing that's worth doing is trying to improve our understanding of the world and gain a better appreciation of the universe and not to worry too much about there being no meaning. And, you know, try and enjoy yourself. Because, actually, life's pretty good. It really is.

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

Mars is the only place in the solar system where it's possible for life to become multi-planetarian.

I think you should always be seeking negative feedback.

The tough thing is figuring out what questions to ask, but […] once you do that, the rest is really easy.

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

Life is too short for long-term grudges.
Elon Musk

It was obvious to me that we could never colonize Mars without reusability, any more than America would have been colonized if they had to burn the ships after every trip.

Nobody wants to buy a $60,000 electric Civic. But people will pay $90,000 for an electric sports car.

If you had to buy a new plane every time you flew somewhere, it would be incredibly expensive.

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.
