- “Neatness is overrated. Let those stacks of paper pile up on your desk. Don't worry about the laundry tossed in the corner. Let the icons clutter up your computer screen. And whatever you do, stop obsessing over your letter-perfect filing system.”

- “The courses are not simple entertainment videogames nor 'repeat after me'training programs. They are 'serious games' that combine patent-pending technologies, including computational models of language, culture and learning; artificial-intelligence-based psychological simulations that dynamically control the unscripted, autonomous behavior of the games' animated characters; and contextual, speaker-independent speech recognition models for non-native speakers.”
