I'm a pretty disciplined investor and pretty disciplined buyer. I do my due diligence. I do my homework. I don't waste money.
I had an allowance, but I had to do things around the house to earn it. I think I always wanted my own money.
I am not attracted to those politicians who are short on vision and only want to make money. I like those who have vision.
Nowadays there are too many players who can't get a contract elsewhere, who come to England and just take the money.
I never attempt to make money on the stock market. I buy on the assumption that they could close the market the next day and not reopen it for five years.

I have friends, political scientists, sociologists, who all share an interest at least in certain kinds of science fiction.
I used to think information was destroyed in black hole. This was my biggest blunder, or at least my biggest blunder in science.
Postwar U.S. was the world's leader in science and technology. The investment in science research was staggering.
He bit his lip in a manner which immediately awakened my maternal sympathy, and I helped him bite it.
The Oklahoma City bombing was simple technology, horribly used. The problem is not technology. The problem is the person or persons using it.
My only worry about tweeting and modern technology is how it has crept into even the darkest corners of the absolute global village we live in.
Any powerful technology has sauce for the goose and the gander... It's just an extension of humanity.
