Jeff Hawkins Quotations

I wouldn't say we came in mad. A lot of us were disappointed. We wanted to show we still have a good team and are not out of the race yet. We still have hope of winning the league.

Guys are figuring out their roles. My key role is not turning over the ball. When I come in the game and come out, we shouldn't be worse off than where we started.

I swear my heart stopped. I was so happy when he was able to come back.

Our bodies are hanging along for the ride, but my brain is talking to your brain. And if we want to understand who we are and how we feel and perceive, we really understand what brains are.

That was the turning point right there. That's when we knew we had them.

That was the biggest game we played all year. Our young players didn't know what to expect. Now they know what's going on and be a little more calm and focused. I think we'll be ready for the challenge.

We played today with unbelievable energy. This was the toughest week of the year. We needed a win to get us out of a funk of our two losses.

We've got our minds so much on basketball stuff and practice, I forgot it was New Year's Eve. Thanks for reminding me, though.

We are in limited production. We will not have a lot of units. That's why we're not in broad distribution today.

The Pilot was born in desperation. When all your other options are closed, you might as well try to do the right thing.

We're doing things to try to make it more inclusive,

The real story is about how these modules work. It's a subtle one because people don't understand how they work. I think what we've done here is created the first true plug-and-play expansion capability.

We weren't as aggressive against their zone as far as moving the ball quickly and getting it to the high post. I think we'll do a better job of it. We've been practicing.

The reason the Palm is so successful is the simplicity of using them. They kind of just work.

We had to get on it every time we turned it over. There was a point we had to run a sprint for 80 seconds on the highest level of speed. That's a killer. My hamstring is still tight from that.

Visor Edge still supports all Springboard modules. You can add the Springboard slot as an option.

It would be great if a city could take only what is desirable to the city. But it?s there, and it?s not going to get any better until it?s in the city.

The whole team bought into what coach Self wanted us to do. We want to get them out of what they are used to doing, make it tough to run their offense.

The show was a big success for Hustler/VCA and Vivid. I think we had more traffic at our booth than in years past.

Prediction by analogy -creativity - is so pervasive we normally don't notice it.

'Dream Act' kids are like all other American kids, with the exception that they have to work harder to excel in school, they live in fear of deportation, and they worry about their future.

A win like this helps the freshmen. We haven't won as many games as we have in the past, and a lot of them are probably thinking like, 'Man.' But the more we win and the more we play good, it gets their confidence up.

This is not an Internet start-up. We're building a consumer electronics company. We're building hardware. You start it going and a year later you got a product. We've been doing the same thing for like a year. We're experienced at this. We've done this before.

This could be a crime of opportunity where someone saw it, hot-wired it and drove it off,

This is a better way for us to keep track

A lot of America's success is because we're an open society and haven't brought dogma or religious influence into the American political process.

Although it requires some adjustment by those already here, immigration has made the U.S.A. the most prosperous nation on Earth.

The young guys were really anxious. But I think they've gotten over their stage fright. They'll be calmer this time.

You can't imagine how much detail we know about brains. There were 28,000 people who went to the neuroscience conference this year, and every one of them is doing research in brains. A lot of data. But there's no theory. There's a little, wimpy box on top there.

About this time, I had an epiphany. Someday, everybody is going to own something like this. But it's got to be a lot smaller and sell for under $ 300.

A car like this stands out. We're hoping some from the public saw this car being moved and can help with the investigation.

It's getting more serious, ... by the spring almost all of our students are driving.

At times in the past, the U.S. did not restrict the number of immigrants.

By increasing application throughput and allocating network bandwidth by workload, Novell and Open IB enable organizations to improve server utilization and create a flexible and responsive data center.

but you can get info like a stock price, an airline schedule or traffic information.

I don't know. Is the weather good down there? Maybe it's the weather. Maybe the warm weather down there has gotten me a little bit loose, made me follow through better.

And, you know, the fact is, if you believe in evolution, we all have a common ancestor, and we all have a common ancestry with the plant in the lobby. This is what evolution tells us. And, it's true. It's kind of unbelievable.

Complexity is not a cause of confusion. It is a result of it.

Adding hardware to any computer is hard. The reality is, you're sticking in disks, trying to run installers. We do a very sophisticated installation and de-install but it's invisible to the user and happens almost instantaneously.

I do two things. I design mobile computers and I study brains.

In grade school I was taught that the United States is a melting pot. People from all over the world come here for freedom and to pursue a better life. They arrive with next to nothing, work incredibly hard, learn a new language and new customs, and in a generation they become an integral part of our amazing nation.

If you look at the history of big obstacles in understanding our world, there's usually an intuitive assumption underlying them that's wrong.

The key to artificial intelligence has always been the representation.

You know what, we don't know diddley squat about brains and no one has a clue how these things work, so don't believe what anyone tells you.

It is the ability to make predictions about the future that is the crux of intelligence.

Your perception of the world is ... really a fabrication of your model of the world. You don't really see light or sound. You perceive it because your model says this is how the world is, and those patterns invoke the model. It's hard to believe, but it really is true.

Coming in second place just means you were the first person to lose....

Annexation is probably the most valuable tool a city has to ensure orderly growth and development.

Prediction is not just one of the things your brain does. It is the primary function of the neo-cortex, and the foundation of intelligence.

Whatever the difference between brilliant and average brains, we are all creative. And through practice and study we can enhance our skills and talents.

We are our brains. My brain is talking to your brain; our bodies are hanging along for the ride.
