access avoid becoming best goes health people
Let's make health care a meritocracy. Access to the best care goes to people who did what they could to avoid becoming ill.
best people
If you want to explore things you haven't explored, having people who look just like you and think just like you is not the best way.
best express general needs state
I think wearables in general have, as their best calling, to better understand our current state and needs and to express those back to the world.
best contact figure society watch
I think we'll see, not only with Glass, but the watch wearables, with the contact lens, that each of these things have their own best purpose, but it will take more on our part and society's part to figure out what that is.
best currently hearts human technology
We know in our hearts that technology at its best should make us feel even more human than we currently feel. Sometimes it makes us feel less human.

We've got rings, glasses, we wear things for armor, for protection from the elements, to signal our status to other people. And we're going to co-opt a lot of those things, where wearables are going to end up being the interface between us in the world.

cameras checking might
When you go into a bar, there are hundreds and hundreds of cameras in that bar - many of them installed by that bar. They might be checking something or taking a picture of you.
approach radically shoot
Why shoot for the moon? It matters because when you try to do something radically hard, you approach the problem differently than when you try to make something incrementally better.
future knowledge piece scientist technology uses
To say a scientist is not at all responsible is wrong. But to say that someone who invents a piece of knowledge or technology is responsible for all future uses is ridiculous. It doesn't have to be that binary.
edition explorer program range wide
The Explorer edition of Glass wasn't for everyone, but the Explorer program pushed us to find a wide range of near-term applications and uses for something like Glass.
facebook google killer small
VisiCalc and WordPerfect were the killer apps of their day, but Google and Facebook make them look small in comparison.
