“In the Internet world, both ends essentially pay for access to the Internet system, and so the providers of access get compensated by the users at each end. My big concern is that suddenly access providers want to step in the middle and create a toll road to limit customers' ability to get access to services of their choice even though they have paid for access to the network in the first place.” WorldWantFirstsEndsBigsChoicesAbilityPayStepsMiddleInternetLimitsConcernPaidCustomersAccessUsersTollsProviders Author:Vinton Cerf
“Let us fix our attention out of ourselves as much as possible; let us chase our imagination to the heavens, or to the utmost limits of the universe; we never really advance a step beyond ourselves, nor can conceive any kind of existence, but those perceptions, which have appeared in that narrow compass.” KindUniverseHeavenImaginationExistenceAttentionStepsLimitsPerceptionCompass Author:David Hume
“Well,the fun part of being a writer is that it's like making a wonderful film, with no limit on my budget. I can design the sets, the costume, the lightings, I write the script, and then I get to perform all the roles as I step into each character's skin, zip up, and adopt that point of view.

“There are two excesses: to exclude reason, to admit nothing but reason. The supreme achievement of reason is to realise that there is a limit to reason. Reason's last step is the recognition that there are an infinite number of things which are beyond it.

“A lot of things get made this way: someone imagines what they want to make, then very carefully plans every step of the process, then sets about making it.

“When employees tell you about their good ideas for the business, don't limit your response to asking questions, taking notes and following up.

Why, that’s the very nature of man, I thought, to press past limits, to prove his freedom.
