Every new invention is like a baby. You think it may cure cancer or become the president, but in the end, you're happy it just stays out of jail.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Our inventions are wont to be pretty toys, which distract our attention from serious things. They are but improved means to an unimproved end.
We should have more invention.
For better or worse, that is true with any new innovation, certainly any new technological innovation. There's many good things that come out of it, but also some bad things. All you can do is try to maximize the good stuff and minimize the bad stuff.
I'm proud of my invention, but I'm sad that it is used by terrorists.
Every once in a while, a new technology, an old problem, and a big idea turn into an innovation.
The innovation is going to come, and that is good for everybody.
In some cases, inventions prohibit innovation because we're so caught up in playing with the technology, we forget about the fact that it was supposed to be important.
An innovation will get traction only if it helps people get something that they're already doing in their lives done better.
Inventions have long since reached their limit, and I see no hope for further development.
Everybody believes in innovation until they see it. Then they think, 'Oh, no; that'll never work. It's too different.'
