More quotes by Elon Musk
I don't spend my time pontificating about high-concept things I spend my time solving engineering and manufacturing problems.
Elon Musk
We need to be super careful with AI. Potentially more dangerous than nukes.
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.
Elon Musk
It's just mind-blowingly awesome. I apologize, and I wish I was more articulate, but it's hard to be articulate when your mind's blown-but in a very good way.
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
I could either watch it happen or be a part of it.
Elon Musk
My mentality is that of a samurai. I would rather commit seppuku than fail.
Elon Musk
When you struggle with a problem, that's when you understand it.
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
I'm increasingly inclined to think there should be some regulatory oversight, maybe at the national and international level just to make sure that we don't do something very foolish.
Elon Musk
It's a fixer-upper of a planet but we could make it work.
Elon Musk
Any product that needs a manual to work is broken.
Elon Musk
Optimism, pessimism, f**k that we're going to make it happen. As God is my bloody witness, I'm hell-bent on making it work.
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
When Henry Ford made cheap, reliable cars people said, 'Nah, what's wrong with a horse?' That was a huge bet he made, and it worked.
Elon Musk
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
I'm extremely confident that solar will be at least a plurality of power, and most likely a majority... in less than 20 years.
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
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.
Elon Musk
It's OK to have your eggs in one basket as long as you control what happens to that basket.
