More quotes by Elon Musk
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.
Elon Musk
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.
Elon Musk
There are some important differences between me and Tony Stark, like I have five kids, so I spend more time going to Disneyland than parties.

Physics is really figuring out how to discover new things that are counterintuitive, like quantum mechanics. It's really counterintuitive.
Elon Musk
It's important that we attempt to extend life beyond Earth now. It is the first time in the four billion-year history of Earth that it's been possible, and that window could be open for a long time - hopefully it is - or it could be open for a short time. We should err on the side of caution and do something now.

The primary means of energy generation is going to solar. It will at least be a plurality, and probably be a slight majority in the long term.
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
I think long term you can see Tesla establishing factories in Europe, in other parts of the U.S. and in Asia.
Elon Musk
You have to be pretty driven to make it happen. Otherwise, you will just make yourself miserable.
Elon Musk
I’m nauseatingly pro-American. I would have come here from any country. The U.S. is where great things are possible.
Elon Musk
Land on Mars, a round-trip ticket - half a million dollars. It can be done.
Elon Musk
As a child I would just question things.
Elon Musk
There's a tremendous bias against taking risks. Everyone is trying to optimize their ass-covering.
Elon Musk
Weighing too much on someone's talent and not someone's personality. I think it matters whether someone has a good heart.
Elon Musk
Humans need to be a multiplanet species.
Elon Musk
Constantly seek criticism. A well thought out critique of what you're doing is as valuable as gold
Elon Musk
I think there are more politicians in favor of electric cars than against. There are still some that are against, and I think the reasoning for that varies depending on the person, but in some cases, they just don't believe in climate change - they think oil will last forever.
