I, personally, trust Valve. But I’m just saying, honestly, I think a lot of the industry doesn’t.
Randy Pitchford
The problem is, we’re moving to software-as-service, which can be yanked or transformed at any moment. The ability of your PC to run independent code is an important safety valve.
Jonathan Zittrain
In our industry, there are so many competing companies and games, and they have people constantly out spying on competition. For example, Valve in Seattle tries to keep their location a secret.
Rony Abovitz
Comedy as dissent or any art form as dissent is going to be our last safety valve.
Varun Grover
I knew racial discrimination at its worst in the 1930s. I lived with the humility of it but I never lost my sense of humor. Humor is the escape valve from the deadly reality of adversity.
Nipsey Russell
Movies were, to me, like a way out. It was an escape valve. I remember having my parents drop me off at movies all the time.
Mike Patton
I don’t believe in life after death. But I do believe in some grinding destiny that watches over us on earth. If I didn’t, the safety valve would give and the boiler would explode.
Hedy Lamarr
It’s the safety valve of middle life, and the solace of age.
Mary Roberts Rinehart
About half the people at Valve have run their own companies, so they always have the option not just to take a job at another game company, but to go start their own company. The question you always have to answer is, ‘How are we making these people more valuable than they would be elsewhere?’
Gabe Newell
I can tell you where I was when Kennedy was shot – which was in the common room at school. I heard about it on the old valve radio. At the time of Armstrong’s landing, I was at university rehearsing a play.
Sam Neill
In order for innovation to happen, a bunch of things that aren’t happening on closed platforms need to occur. Valve wouldn’t exist today without the PC, or Epic, or Zynga, or Google. They all wouldn’t have existed without the openness of the platform.
Gabe Newell
I have a pig valve.
Barbara Bush
People should have an escape valve for their money, their assets. If you have substantial financial assets, the government is going to confiscate the purchasing power of those assets and spend it.
Peter Schiff
Laughter is the valve on the pressure cooker of life. Either you laugh and suffer, or you got your beans or brains on the ceiling.
Wavy Gravy
The culture at Valve is pretty much crowdsourced. The handbook is a wiki. One of the first things we say to new hires is, ‘You have to change something in the handbook.’
Gabe Newell
I used to have, and I still do have, really bad acid reflux. I had a surgical procedure done… that repaired a valve at the top of my stomach that had completely burned away.
David Draiman
I have a cow’s valve in my heart.
Maurice Strong
When I walk on stage, it’s a release valve for me. Life is stressful anyway, so therefore, when I walk on stage, it releases all those stressful situations, and I feel good about myself.
Engelbert Humperdinck
To me, every kitchen appliance is useful and nothing’s overrated. When I look at my little espresso machine, I don’t see coffee. I see a steaming valve as an opportunity to make amazing creme brulee.
Grant Achatz
I’d been at Valve since I got out of college. I felt like I kind of grew up there, and I wanted to see what else was out in the world. One of the owners of Airtight Games is a friend of mine, and he asked if I would run a team there. It just sounded like a great opportunity.
Kim Swift
