When You Struggle With A Problem, That's

You Should Be Innovating So Fast That You're Invalidating Your Prior Patents.

Yeah, Well I Think Anyone Who Likes Fast Cars Will Love The Tesla. And It Has Fantastic Handling By The Way. I Mean This Car Will Crush A Porsche On The Track, Just Crush It.

It Is A Mistake To Hire Huge Numbers Of People To Get A Complicated Job Done. Numbers Will Never Compensate For Talent In Getting The Right Answer (two People Who Don't Know Something Are No Better Than One), Will Tend To Slow Down Progress, And Will Make The Task Incredibly Expensive.

I Started Spacex With The Expectation Of Failure.
