Elon Musk Quotes

Tesla Motors was created to accelerate the advent of sustainable transport. If we clear a path to the creation of compelling electric vehicles, but then lay intellectual property landmines behind us to inhibit others, we are acting in a manner contrary to that goal. Tesla will not initiate patent lawsuits against anyone who, in good faith, wants to use our technology Picture Quote #1
You could power the entire United States with about 150 to 200 square kilometers of solar panels, the entire United States. Take a corner of Utah... there’s not much going on there, I’ve been there. There’s not even radio stations Picture Quote #1
The overarching goal of Tesla is to help reduce carbon emissions and that means low cost and high volume. We will also serve as an example to the auto industry, proving that the technology really works and customers want to buy electric vehicles Picture Quote #1
In the early days of aviation, there was a great deal of experimentation and a high death rate Picture Quote #1
Government isn’t that good at rapid advancement of technology. It tends to be better at funding basic research. To have things take off, you’ve got to have commercial companies do it Picture Quote #1
I’ve been to Disneyland, like, 10 times. I’m getting really tired of Disneyland Picture Quote #1

What I’m trying to do is to maximise the probability of the future being better Picture Quote #1
Silicon Valley has evolved a critical mass of engineers and venture capitalists and all the support structure - the law firms, the real estate, all that - that are all actually geared toward being accepting of startups Picture Quote #1
The problem is that at a lot of big companies, process becomes a substitute for thinking. You’re encouraged to behave like a little gear in a complex machine. Frankly, it allows you to keep people who aren’t that smart, who aren’t that creative Picture Quote #1
My proceeds from the PayPal acquisition were $180 million. I put $100 million in SpaceX, $70m in Tesla, and $10m in Solar City. I had to borrow money for rent Picture Quote #1
If you want to grow a giant redwood, you need to make sure the seeds are ok, nurture the sapling, and work out what might potentially stop it from growing all the way along. Anything that breaks it at any point stops that growth Picture Quote #1
If you’re trying to create a company, it’s like baking a cake. You have to have all the ingredients in the right proportion Picture Quote #1

The U.S. automotive industry has been selling cars the same way for over 100 years, and there are many laws in place to govern exactly how that is to be accomplished Picture Quote #1
SpaceX is only 12 years old now. Between now and 2040, the company’s lifespan will have tripled. If we have linear improvement in technology, as opposed to logarithmic, then we should have a significant base on Mars, perhaps with thousands or tens of thousands of people Picture Quote #1
To make an embarrassing admission, I like video games. That’s what got me into software engineering when I was a kid. I wanted to make money so I could buy a better computer to play better video games - nothing like saving the world Picture Quote #1
If you look at space companies, they’ve failed either because they’ve had a technical solution where success was not a possible outcome, they were unable to attract a critical mass of talent, or they just ran out of money. The finish line is usually a lot further away than you think Picture Quote #1
I usually describe myself as an engineer; that’s basically what I’ve been doing since I was a kid Picture Quote #1
With DNA, you have to be able to tell which genes are turned on or off. Current DNA sequencing cannot do that. The next generation of DNA sequencing needs to be able to do this. If somebody invents this, then we can start to very precisely identify cures for diseases Picture Quote #1

No I don’t ever give up. I would have to be dead or completely incapacitated Picture Quote #1
I think a lot of the American people feel more than a little disappointed that the high-water mark for human exploration was 1969. The dream of human space travel has almost died for a lot of people Picture Quote #1
I really do encourage other manufacturers to bring electric cars to market. It’s a good thing, and they need to bring it to market and keep iterating and improving and make better and better electric cars, and that’s what going to result in humanity achieving a sustainable transport future. I wish it was growing faster than it is Picture Quote #1
I’ve actually made a prediction that within 30 years a majority of new cars made in the United States will be electric. And I don’t mean hybrid, I mean fully electric Picture Quote #1
The fuel cell is just a fundamentally inferior way of delivering electrical energy to an electric motor than batteries Picture Quote #1
You want to have a future where you’re expecting things to be better, not one where you’re expecting things to be worse Picture Quote #1

It is theoretically possible to warp spacetime itself, so you’re not actually moving faster than the speed of light, but it’s actually space that’s moving Picture Quote #1
We could definitely make a flying car - but that’s not the hard part. The hard part is, how do you make a flying car that’s super safe and quiet? Because if it’s a howler, you’re going to make people very unhappy Picture Quote #1
Physics is a good framework for thinking. ... Boil things down to their fundamental truths and reason up from there Picture Quote #1
If anyone thinks they’d rather be in a different part of history, they’re probably not a very good student of history. Life sucked in the old days. People knew very little, and you were likely to die at a young age of some horrible disease. You’d probably have no teeth by now. It would be particularly awful if you were a woman Picture Quote #1
Weighing too much on someone’s talent and not someone’s personality. I think it matters whether someone has a good heart Picture Quote #1
For my part, I will never give up, and I mean never Picture Quote #1
