You Can't Punish A Child Who Is

You Simply Cannot Tell Other People They Are Stupid, Even If They Really Are Stupid.

People Talk About Curing Autism. But If You Got Rid Of All Those Traits, Who's Going To Make The Next Computer?

I Think There's Some Kids That Need To Go From Being A Child To Being A Grown-up. You Get Out In The Tech Communities, The Parents Just Apprentice Their Kid Into The Industry And They Just Skip Being A Teenager.

In Fact, There Are Autism Clusters, You Know, Around Some Of The Big Tech Centers. You Take Two Socially Awkward Computer Programmers And Put Them Together, That Can Kind Of Concentrate The Autistic Genes.

People On The Autism Spectrum Don't Think The Same Way You Do. In My Life, People Who Made A Difference Were Those Who Didn't See Labels, Who Believed In Building On What Was There. These Were People Who Didn't Try To Drag Me Into Their World, But Came Into Mine Instead.
