Elon Musk: We try to maximize animal welfare at Neuralink. We even offer monkey room service. “I want to emphasize that we do our absolute best to take care of the animals. When we had a USDA inspector come through, she said this was the nicest animal facility she's ever seen in her entire life. We have monkey room service, which is rare. We're the only ones who offer monkey room service. We really do everything we can to maximize the welfare of the animals.” Source: Neuralink Update, July 2024

Elon Musk: We had to print out 25,000 pages of paper to start Tesla's factory in Germany. Alice Weidel: “We need to free our firms, our companies, and the individuals of these obnoxious bureaucratic conditions here [in Germany]. Do you know how long it takes, how many days it takes to get a business permit in Germany?” Elon Musk: “As it turns out, I do, because we built a gigantic car factory just near Berlin. We had many, many challenges.  To be clear, we actually had a lot of support, a lot of local support, a lot of local support from the local government, from the national government.  And despite all that support, just the sheer number of rules that the people in the government are required to follow is completely crazy.  I think our permit was 25,000 pages, and it had to be all printed on paper. I think maybe more than that in the end.  There has to be many, many copies made. It literally was a truck of paper.  We were like, surely we can make this electronic? Isn't that better for everyone? And they said, no, it has to be paper. This is crazy.  This was only a few years ago. It's not the distant past. We're a quarter of the way through the 21st century. It's like, guys, 25,000 actual printed pages ...  I believe every page needed to be stamped with a physical stamp. Honestly, it's going to really tire somebody out to do so much stamping. They're going to get some sort of repetitive stress injury. They will end up in the hospital, I mean, that's too much. But I'm not trying to blame the individuals who are doing this because they are just following the rules. So, we have to change the rules.” Conversation with Alice Weidel, January 9, 2025

Elon Musk: It's not about going to Mars to visit once. “It's not about going to Mars to visit once, but it is to make life multiplanetary so that we can expand the scope and scale of consciousness to better understand the nature of the universe and to ensure the long-term survival of civilization. In the hopefully unlikely event that something terrible happens to Earth, [there could be] a continuance of consciousness on Mars. One of the benefits of Mars is life insurance for life collectively.” Interview with Jesse Watters, Fox News, May 6, 2025

We need to allow the people to develop the narratives that are of interest to them. If there's only half a dozen editors-in-chief, or even fewer, deciding what the narrative is, that's a form of manipulation of public opinion." Elon Musk to Tucker Carlson one year ago.

Sandy Munro on Elon Musk: I've never seen a CEO who knows more about the product. “We spent two hours watching a design review. I was blown away. I've seen dozens of CEOs. I've never seen a CEO ever, or a president that knew more about the product, that knew the details of a product, that could bring an idea and discuss it not just in a grandiose hand-waving way, but say, let's use this formula and rattle off a formula or rattle off a material or rattle off a process that is kind of obscure unless you're like a detail engineer. I was blown away by that. And that kind of stuff you don't see executives know much about.” From: Visiting SpaceX & Meeting Elon Musk [Munro Clip], February 19, 2021
