People are always looking for ...
People are always looking for the single magic bullet that will totally change everything. There is no single magic bullet.
If you have autism in the fami...
If you have autism in the family history, you still vaccinate. Delay it a bit, space them out.
I think a brain can be made "m...
I think a brain can be made "more thinking" or made "more emotional." At what point does this become abnormal? Autism in its milder variants, I think, is part of normal human variation.
I tend to be much more in the ...
I tend to be much more in the present and my emotions are simpler. I can be happy, I can be sad, I can be depressed, but there's a complexity that I don't have. I don't brood the same way. Fear is my main emotion.

What do I do when I go home? Work. That's basically my social life. I'm married to work.
I've got a lot of other people...
I've got a lot of other people who do a lot of things for me, so I've gotten to a part in my career where I'm doing a lot of talks because I want to get kids turned on. I want to see these kids, these geeky nerdy kids, go out there and do something.
I'm seeing too many geeky, ner...
I'm seeing too many geeky, nerdy kids get addicted to video games and they're going nowhere. It's making me crazy.
People are getting too far awa...
People are getting too far away from the real-world. Politics is just ridiculous, it's totally dysfunctional.
But my favorite of Einstein's ...
But my favorite of Einstein's words on religion is "Science without religion is lame. Religion without science is blind." I like this because both science and religion are needed to answer life's great questions.
Unfortunately, most people nev...
Unfortunately, most people never observe the natural cycle of birth and death. They do not realize that for one living thing to survive, another living thing must die.

You simply cannot tell other people they are stupid, even if they really are stupid.
I think using animals for food...
I think using animals for food is an ethical thing to do, but we've got to do it right. We've got to give those animals a decent life and we've got to give them a painless death. We owe the animal respect.
Medication should never be con...
Medication should never be considered the only tool for helping a person.
From a scientific standpoint, ...
From a scientific standpoint, Aspergers and autism are one syndrome. Aspergers is part of the autism spectrum, not a separate disorder.
What would happen if the autis...
What would happen if the autism gene was eliminated from the gene pool? You would have a bunch of people standing around in a cave, chatting and socializing and not getting anything done.
Social thinking skills must be...
Social thinking skills must be directly taught to children and adults with ASD. Doing so opens doors of social understandings in all areas of life.

You can't punish a child who is acting out because of sensory overload.

Animals are like autistic savants. In fact, I'd go so far as to say that animals might actually be autistic savants. Animals have special talents normal people don't, the same way autistic people have special talents normal people don't; and at least some animals have special forms of genius normal people don't, the same way some autistic savants have special forms of genius. I think most of the time animal genius probably happens for the same reason autistic genius does: a difference in the brain autistic people share
