Any product that needs a manual to work is broken.

When we got Tesla going at the very beginning, if you asked me what I thought the odds of success were, I would have said less than 50%. I would have said that failure is the most likely outcome.
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
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.

If we drive down the cost of transportation in space, we can do great things.
Elon Musk
Image
Work like hell. I mean you just have to put in 80 to 100 hour weeks every week. [This] improves the odds of success. If other people are putting in 40 hour work weeks and you’re putting in 100 hour work weeks, then even if you’re doing the same thing you know that you will achieve in 4 months what it takes them a year to achieve.

You need to live in a dome initially but over time you could terraform Mars to look like Earth and eventually walk around outside without anything on. ... So it's a fixer-upper of a planet.
Elon Musk
Image
Even if producing CO2 was good for the environment, given that we're going to run out of hydrocarbons, we need to find some sustainable means of operating.
Elon Musk
Image
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.
Elon Musk
Image
You can just reload, propel it and fly again. This is extremely important for revolutionizing access to space because as long as we continue to throw away rockets and space crafts, we will never truly have access to space.
Elon Musk
Image
To our knowledge, life exists on only one planet, Earth. If something bad happens, it's gone. I think we should establish life on another planet-Mars in particular-but we 're not making very good progress. SpaceX is intended to make that happen.
Elon Musk
Image
I think long term you can see Tesla establishing factories in Europe, in other parts of the U.S. and in Asia.

Constantly seek criticism. A well thought out critique of what you're doing is as valuable as gold
Elon Musk

We need to be super careful with AI. Potentially more dangerous than nukes.
Elon Musk
Image
If you had to buy a new plane every time you flew somewhere, it would be incredibly expensive.
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.

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.

Tesla is here to stay and keep fighting for the electric car revolution.
Elon Musk
Image
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. You can buy a much cheaper cell phone or laptop, but Apple's product is so much better than the alternative, and people are willing to pay that premium.

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