I love what the Valley does. I love company building. I love startups. I love technology companies. I love new technology. I love this process of invention.

I will say that walking down the street, getting on the subway, taking the elevator, if there's one or two people and they say, 'Great job, Mayor,' that is a real turn-on. I mean, anybody that wouldn't find that satisfying, rewarding, exciting, thrilling - I think they should see the doctor. ↗
