I watch virtually no TV. All my screen time is computer time for me. When I'm not doing that I'm reading or talking to my friends who I got to know through computers.

I don't watch TV. I don't use a computer, a fax or a cellphone.

In 2007, there weren't any other accelerators, at least that I was aware of. We were almost the prototypical Y Combinator founders: We were highly technical but had never done a startup before. We also didn't know anyone in the Valley - investors, other entrepreneurs, potential hires. YC seemed like a great way to bootstrap that network.

The computer can't tell you the emotional story. It can give you the exact mathematical design, but what's missing is the eyebrows.

I wouldn't know a space-time continuum or warp core breach if they got into bed with me.

I had a TV set and a typewriter and that made me think a computer should be laid out like a typewriter with a video screen.
