“In fact, he had never really gotten the appeal most people found in hapless diversions. He would see things on television about drunken spring break beach weekends, and none of it would compute. A lot of people didn’t seem to enjoy their work. Carmack knew well and good what he enjoyed—programming—and was systematically arranging his life to spend the most time possible doing just that.”
David Kushner, Masters of Doom: How Two Guys Created an Empire and Transformed Pop Culture

“He was hired to be a manager, not a visionary. Unlike Intel’s prior CEOs—Bob Noyce, Gordon Moore, Andy Grove, and Craig Barrett—Otellini’s background was not in engineering or physics, but in economics.”
Chris Miller, Chip War: The Fight for the World's Most Critical Technology

“The boots fit perfectly. Billy Pilgrim was Cinderella, and Cinderella was Billy Pilgrim.”
