“When you write a computer program you've got to not just list things out and sort of take an algorithm and translate it into a set of instructions. But when there's a bug — and all programs have bugs — you've got to debug it. You've got to go in, change it, and then re-execute … and you iterate. And that iteration is really a very, very good approximation of learning.”

“You can't retire to weakness -- you've got to learn to control strength.”

“No matter how fast light travels it finds the darkness has always got there first, and is waiting for it.”

“Wait. You've got principles? We'll have to update your file.”

“There are lessons to life
That the lovers got to learn
There are corners out there
You know they're waitin' somewhere
And you've got to be prepared to turn
There are callouses that come
That the lovers got to earn
In the years of your youth
You can't be fire proof
You know you've got to get burned.”

“You can't just sit there and wait for people to give you that golden dream, you've got to get out there and make it happen yourself.”

“If you're squeezed for information,
that's when you've got to play it dumb:
You just say you're out there waiting
for the miracle to come.”

“Waiting and hoping is a hard thing to do when you've already been waiting and hoping for almost as long as you can bear it.”
