I was the youngest kid on our street in Baltimore, and I was always playing sports with kids who were older than me. You learn a lot that way.

5G will have an impact similar to the introduction of electricity or the car, affecting entire economies and benefiting entire societies.

If you look at where the growth is happening - tablet growth compared to the traditional PC growth - you just can't compare them.

When you go in to get your car serviced, they plug it in and tell you everything that happened for the last six months. I walk in and get a stress test from my doctor, and they make a conclusion based off of that. That doesn't make sense to me. I would much prefer to have all of the data about myself and less about my car.

People tend to associate Qualcomm with the chip - and they should: We're an excellent chip company - but I think we have a larger role in the ecosystem of cellular that I think people are not aware of. And our relevance to more consumer electronics - and, I would say, industries - is actually just increasing.

Both parents were teachers. My father became an assistant principal, and he was responsible for discipline at the school. So I didn't get away with much at home.

In the chip business, our higher-tier products are actually becoming more expensive because more and more of the functionality of the phone comes into the chip itself. So we have been grabbing content on the phone at a time when the phone is becoming more and more like a PC in terms of things it can do.

If you look at the developed world, people have multiple devices now. And a phone works with a watch, with a car, with a tablet, with a number of other type of devices.

As a company, whatever the business outlook is, you want to make sure you have new skill sets coming into the company.

If you look back to 2008, people didn't have smartphones. Now everyone essentially has a smartphone.
