That's what Google taught me. Aim higher. Udacity is my playground - to radically experiment and find out. I've seen the light.

Every time I act on a fear, I feel disappointed in myself. I have a lot of fear. If I can quit all fear in my life and all guilt, then I tend to be much, much more living up to my standards. I've never seen a person fail if they didn't fear failure.
- Deep

- Nov 07, 2020
I have a really deep belief that we create technologies to empower ourselves. We've invented a lot of technology that just makes us all faster and better, and I'm generally a big fan of this. I just want to make sure that this technology stays subservient to people. People are the number one entity there is on this planet.
- Learning

- Nov 07, 2020
I learned to basically pull my own weight, just do my own thing. I spent a lot of time alone and I loved it. It was actually really great because to the present day I love spending time alone. I go bicycling alone, go climbing alone and I just love being with myself and observing myself and learning something.

Question every assumption and go towards the problem, like the way they flew to the moon. We should have more moon shots and flights to the moon in areas of societal importance.

I have been spending the better part of my professional life trying to create self-driving cars. At Google, I am working with a world-class team of engineers to turn science fiction into reality.
- Drive
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Self-driving cars will enable car-sharing even in spread-out suburbs. A car will come to you just when you need it. And when you are done with it, the car will just drive away, so you won't even have to look for parking.
- Looking
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I'm really looking forward to a time when generations after us look back and say how ridiculous it was that humans were driving cars.
- Drive
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
It's a no-brainer for me that at some point our cars will have the ability to drive themselves.
- Die
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
We humans usually feel that we are the best at everything we do, that we can safely drive ourselves. But tens of thousands of people die every year. We need to be open to having technology assist us, to find ways in which technology makes us safer.
- Me
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I've developed my passion for cars that drive themselves from being stuck in traffic for many, many, many hours of my life. I don't know what it adds up to, but I feel like I've lost a year or two just in traffic. That's big to me. That's a lot of time, a lot of money that I just lose on the road.
- Like

- Nov 07, 2020
As a child, I spent a lot of time with things like Lego, building trains, cars, complex structures, and I really liked that.
- Intelligence
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I ultimately got into robotics because for me, it was the best way to study intelligence.
- Life
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I always love to be careful with my expectations so that life has pleasant surprises for me.
- Never

- Nov 07, 2020
Access to high-quality education is way too limited. The United States has the world's most admirable higher education system, and yet it is very restrictive. It's so hard to get into. I never got into it as a student.
- Intelligence
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Nobody phrases it this way, but I think that artificial intelligence is almost a humanities discipline. It's really an attempt to understand human intelligence and human cognition.
- Education
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
At the end of the day, the true value proposition of education is employment.
- Focus
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
If you focus on the single question of who knows best what students need in the workforce, it's the people already in the workforce. Why not give industry a voice?
- Doing
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
In my son's kindergarten, they're telling us how to get him into Stanford. By their advice, I'm doing everything wrong, because I'm trying to make him happy rather than putting him through as many piano lessons as possible.
- Fare
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I am particularly surprised that certain outlets look at pass rates irrespective of student population. As if inner city high school kids are to fare as well as college students.
- College Professor
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Even as a college professor at Carnegie Mellon and Stanford, I saw myself as an entrepreneur, and I went out, took risks, and tried to invent new things, such as participating in the DARPA Grand Challenge and working on self-driving cars.
- Hard Work
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I used to tell my graduate students at Stanford, 'Don't worry about what job you have to pick because your job picks you. Let your job pick you. Find something you are passionate about. Then when you are passionate, be persistent. Just keep doing it for a while because progress is always hard work. It never rests in ideas.'
- Me

- Nov 07, 2020
You are going to fail, and failing, for me, is as joyful as succeeding. Failing means that there is something to learn, and we can improve and do it better next time.
- Motto
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
It's important to celebrate your failures as much as your successes. If you celebrate your failures really well, and if you get to the motto and say, 'Wow, I failed, I tried, I was wrong, I learned something,' then you realize you have no fear, and when your fear goes away, you can move the world.
- Earth
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Google X is here to do moonshot-type projects. Not just shooting to the moon, but bringing the moon back to Earth.
- Gravity
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I have a strong disrespect for authority and for rules. Including gravity. Gravity sucks.
- Better
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I always felt that if countries knew each other better, there would be less war. Often, conflict goes with demonizing other countries and cultures.
- Other
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Technology is synonymous for connection with other people.
- Look
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
We don't look at problems logically, we look at them emotionally. We look at them through the guts. We look at them as if we're doing a high school problem, like what is beautiful, what makes me recognized among my peers. We don't go and think about things. We, as a society, don't wish to engage in rational thought.
- Business Model
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Giving education away for free is a really good idea, but it can't be the future of education. There has to be a business model around it that actually works.
- Business
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I'd really love to see a business model for higher education going forward that is actually affordable, that uses modern technology to reach scale and quality and that really reimburses the services rendered in a way that's meaningful to everybody.
- Good
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I really believe that we have to work hard to make online education better and better, and eventually it's going to be really great. But like most of these things, it takes time to improve, to understand and to make things really good.
- Death
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Education used to be a slice of life, something you did as a child through college, and then spent the rest of your life working, and then death. Everything is about to change. I believe education will become something that fits seamlessly into life, and we will take big clunky things like degrees and college and fit them into a weekend.
