如果你想获得诺贝尔奖，我认为这几乎是正确的。你应该长期集中注意力，掌握一些深刻而重要的问题，并坚持十年，这不是我的风格。
对于自己没有获得2009年诺贝尔奖的反应
Your self-worth is determined by you. You don't have to depend on someone telling you who you are.
"You don't get to choose if you get hurt in this world, but you do have some say in who hurts you."
【译文】力气单薄就不要去背负重物，说话没分量就不要规劝别人。没有钱就不要到人群中去，遇到危难千万别去求亲戚。
In business, you have to be willing to adapt or you will be left behind.
