So I Could Work More

So I Could Work More

I have never wanted more time like this “so I could work more.”

But I have wanted it for more time reading and writing.

They never really dated, but Christie found Musk interesting enough to have lengthy conversations with him on the phone. β€œOne night he told me, β€˜If there was a way that I could not eat, so I could work more, I would not eat. I wish there was a way to get nutrients without sitting down for a meal.’ The enormity of his work ethic at that age and his intensity jumped out. It seemed like one of the more unusual things I had ever heard.”

-Ashley Vance, Elon Musk: Tesla, SpaceX, and the Quest for a Fantastic Future (Amazon)
