“Every time you think all the technology that had been created already, all you have to do is look around and then there’s someone new who’s born with a new idea.”

A big part of my job is to accelerate our ability to bring innovative products to our customers more quickly.

Our ambitions are bold and so must be our desire to change and evolve our culture.

I sign up for more online courses than I can complete. I fundamentally believe that if you are not learning new things, you stop doing great and useful things. So family, curiosity and hunger for knowledge all define me.

That’s both because of the physicality of computing–where the speed of light still matters–and because of geopolitics.

Be passionate and bold.

This is a critical time for the industry and for Microsoft. Make no mistake, we are headed for greater places – as technology evolves and we evolve with and ahead of it. Our job is to ensure that Microsoft thrives in a mobile and cloud-first world.

I think playing cricket taught me more about working in teams and leadership that has stayed with me throughout my career.

The opportunity ahead for Microsoft is vast, but to seize it, we must focus clearly, move faster and continue to transform.

This notion of universal Windows apps is a very powerful concept because we’re now aggregating the 300-plus-million-socket run rate of Windows into one opportunity for our developers.

What was true then and what is true now is that we create technology so others can create more technology.

Be passionate and bold. Always keep learning. You stop doing useful things if you don’t learn.

Microsoft is the productivity and platform company for the mobile-first and cloud-first world.

One of the key things in the tech business in particular is that you need to be able to push boundaries.

Like anyone else, a lot of what I do and how I think has been shaped by my family and my overall life experience. Many who know me say I am also defined by my curiosity and thirst for learning. I buy more books than I can finish.

In the post-Snowden world, you need to enable others to build their own cloud and have mobility of applications.

If you are going to have a risk-taking culture, you can’t really look at every failure as a failure, you’ve got to be able to look at the failure as a learning opportunity.

But when the morning comes, I realize that there’s nothing to be done about what has already happened.

Much of God’s will for your life is already found in the Bible.

You don’t make Him Lord. He’s Lord already. You just recognize it.

If I haven’t had any long term psychological side effects from all the things I’ve already done on this show, this isn’t gonna hurt much more.

The best of them will work alone, already a part of the enemy camp, and in chameleon-like style master the fifth-column algorithms to subvert the ancient regime.

I only translate authors whose work already interests me as a reader, and that’s a decision I make based on multiple encounters with an author’s work.

Often people who already had an interest in human rights work.

The Futurists?…. Well, of course, they are already past.
