The future of advertising is the Internet.

On one of my last days at school, the headmaster said I would either end up in prison or become a millionaire. That was quite a startling prediction, but in some respects, he was right on both counts!

Music, even with these dial-up connections you have to the Internet, is very practical to download.

When I arrived in Laos and found young Americans living there, out of free choice, I was surprised. After only a week, I began to have a sense of the appeal of the country and its people – along with despair about its future.

For me, when you are have people wondering what is next, what is coming out, you are on the right track.

The empires of the future are the empires of the mind.

It is the advertiser who provides the paper for the subscriber. It is not to be disputed, that the publisher of a newspaper in this country, without a very exhaustive advertising support, would receive less reward for his labor than the humblest mechanic.

We need enlightenment, not just individually but collectively, to save the planet. We need to awaken ourselves. We need to practice mindfulness if we want to have a future, if we want to save ourselves and the planet.

I desire no future that will break the ties with the past.

Study the past, if you would divine the future.

As a research tool, the internet is invaluable.

I do not want to foresee the future. I am concerned with taking care of the present. God has given me no control over the moment following.

When we see the face of a child, we think of the future. We think of their dreams about what they might become, and what they might accomplish.

Everywhere I go I find that people… both leaders and individuals… are asking one basic question, ‚Is there any hope for the future?‘ My answer is the same, ‚Yes, through Jesus Christ.‘

Someday I want to have children and give them all the love I never had.

Our combat mission is ending, but our commitment to Iraq’s future is not.

The most compelling reason for most people to buy a computer for the home will be to link it to a nationwide communications network. We’re just in the beginning stages of what will be a truly remarkable breakthrough for most people – as remarkable as the telephone.

Everyone knows that when you look at a television ad, you do not expect to get information. You expect to see delusion and imagery.

We can fear things into existence. Fear looks into the future and imagines the worst that can happen.

I was a peripheral visionary. I could see the future, but only way off to the side.

We can choose a future where we export more products and outsource fewer jobs. After a decade that was defined by what we bought and borrowed, we’re getting back to basics, and doing what America has always done best: We’re making things again.

The future will be better tomorrow.

It’s like the Wild West, the Internet. There are no rules.

Driving up the value of the advertising is a big commitment for Microsoft.

You don’t have to turn on the TV set. You don’t have to work on the Internet. It’s up to you.

Let advertisers spend the same amount of money improving their product that they do on advertising and they wouldn’t have to advertise it.

People will visit Mars, they will settle mars, and we should because it’s cool.

It’s not going to do any good to land on Mars if we’re stupid.

You can think of the entire Internet as a place where ideas embodied in cyberspace are having a war, and it’s not much different than the war of gods in heaven, which has been taking place since there’s been human beings.

The future of American film lies on television.

This generation of Americans has a rendezvous with destiny.

The year 2100 will see eugenics universally established. In past ages, the law governing the survival of the fittest roughly weeded out the less desirable strains. Then man’s new sense of pity began to interfere with the ruthless workings of nature. As a result, we continue to keep alive and to breed the unfit.

It takes more than capital to swing business. You’ve got to have the A. I. D. degree to get by – Advertising, Initiative, and Dynamics.

I like the dreams of the future better than the history of the past.

We can, for example, be fairly confident that either there will be a world without war or there won’t be a world – at least, a world inhabited by creatures other than bacteria and beetles, with some scattering of others.

One Ad is worth more to a paper than forty Editorials.

The elections are run by the same industries that sell toothpaste on television.

You can always cope with the present moment, but you cannot cope with something that is only a mind projection – you cannot cope with the future.

We must restore hope to young people, help the old, be open to the future, spread love. Be poor among the poor. We need to include the excluded and preach peace.

Advertising is a racket, like the movies and the brokerage business. You cannot be honest without admitting that its constructive contribution to humanity is exactly minus zero.

We are made wise not by the recollection of our past, but by the responsibility for our future.

I’m reasonably optimistic about the future, especially the future of the United States – for the century, at least.

Success in creating AI would be the biggest event in human history. Unfortunately, it might also be the last, unless we learn how to avoid the risks.

I have realized that the past and future are real illusions, that they exist in the present, which is what there is and all there is.

Tomorrow belongs to those who can hear it coming.

A tremendous amount of the entrepreneurial initiative, if you want to call it that, comes from the dynamic state sector on which most of the economy relies to socialize costs and risks and privatize eventual profit. And that’s achieved by, if you like, advertising.

We are at the very beginning of time for the human race. It is not unreasonable that we grapple with problems. But there are tens of thousands of years in the future. Our responsibility is to do what we can, learn what we can, improve the solutions, and pass them on.

Our most basic common link is that we all inhabit this planet. We all breathe the same air. We all cherish our children’s future. And we are all mortal.

There is a huge need and a huge opportunity to get everyone in the world connected, to give everyone a voice and to help transform society for the future. The scale of the technology and infrastructure that must be built is unprecedented, and we believe this is the most important problem we can focus on.

Expecting is the greatest impediment to living. In anticipation of tomorrow, it loses today.

Certainly in the next 50 years we shall see a woman president, perhaps sooner than you think. A woman can and should be able to do any political job that a man can do.

We always overestimate the change that will occur in the next two years and underestimate the change that will occur in the next ten. Don’t let yourself be lulled into inaction.
