“Anything new will have to come along with the type of revolution that came along with Unix. Nothing was going to topple IBM until something came along that made them irrelevant. I'm sure they have the mainframe market locked up, but that's just irrelevant. And the same thing with Microsoft: until something comes along that makes them irrelevant, the entry fee is too difficult and they won't be displaced.”

“"Wuthering Heights" was not your normal type song — but that's why it was so brilliant. It was something out the norm. When something like that comes along, they don’t come along that often.
When does the next Kate Bush come along, after Kate Bush? There hasn’t been one.”

“I hope that something better comes along.”

“No step along the way had seemed more than a little thing; but altogether it came to something rather monstrous.”

“A lot of other people wanted a free production UNIX with lots of bells and whistles and wanted to convert MINIX into that. I was dragged along in the maelstrom for a while, but when Linux came along, I was actually relieved that I could go back to professoring.”

“Opportunities may come along for you to convert something—something that exists into something that didn't yet.”

“In every heart there is a room,
A sanctuary safe and strong,
To heal the wounds from lovers past,
Until a new one comes along”

“Effective leaders are alike in one crucial way: They all have a high degree of what has come to be known as emotional intelligence. It’s not that IQ and technical skills are irrelevant. They do matter, but mainly as “threshold capabilities”; that is, they are the entry-level requirements for executive positions. But my research, along with other recent studies, clearly shows that emotional intelligence is the sine qua non of leadership.”

“I was just wondering if you'd come along,
Hold up my head when my head won't hold on.
I'll do the same if the same is what you want.
But if not I'll go… I'll go alone.”

“Don't try to go too fast. Learn your job. Don't ever talk until you know what you're talking about... If you want to get along, go along.”
