I don’t care, because I won’t be here.

As someone who added to a situation rather than took away from it.

Me gustaría que la gente se viera empoderada a construir, a resolver problemas. Que salgamos muchas veces de esa visión de víctimas en la que dependemos de muchas fuerzas. Que veamos problemas como grandes oportunidades para ayudar a resolver. Por ejemplo, frente a esa mala experiencia con los bancos, como me pasó en Brasil, mucha gente se hubiera sentado y quejado del banco. Pero vi una oportunidad gigantesca de ir y competir contra él.

I am flattered and embarassed by all the recent attention to my "Last Lecture." I am told that, including abridged versions, over six million people have viewed the lecture online. The lecture really was for my kids, but if others are finding value in it, that is wonderful. But rest assured; I'm hardly unique. Send your kids to Carnegie Mellon and the other professors here will teach them valuable life lessons long after I'm gone.

Worry about the things you can control and don’t worry about the things you can’t.

Double-glazing sales when I was about 16 – on the phone, cold calling. Horrendous.

It would be a racist comment.

The FA Cup final, watching Crystal Palace win.

Not being a scratch golfer.

All the times I was mean to someone.
