In managers, I look for people who can get things done through other people. The most important thing for a good manager is that the people on his team feel like he or she has integrity.
The story of the entrepreneur... is the story of forward progress, of pursuing one's dreams and goals no matter how outlandish they seem to others. The entrepreneur, like the pioneer, pushes boundaries in search of what's new, what's next. Sometimes, he brings the whole society with him, rushing forward together into a next phase of our communal human life.
I think it's good politics to beat up on big companies and rich people.
I debated free trade in college. I came out as a free trader. I'm a free markets guy. I'm an Adam Smith guy.
I come from a long line of people that write. My folks ran a weekly newspaper.
I'm interested in personalities, not political parties.

Actually, I've never thought myself as being a particularly hard worker. I've always worked, and I guess my mind is busy all the time. I've been in a lot of things just because of my own intellectual curiosity.
I'm a monomaniac with one goal: clean air from clean energy.
The air is dirty because of the electricity monopolists. They have powerful money lobbyists.
