I had 100 chips on my shoulder.
I was waking up with my fist clenched every day.
I said, I am going to prove to them that I'm somebody.
I am not a one-hit wonder.
They haven't seen the last of me.
One of the kindest things that I think anyone's done has been my wife, who I had told, hey, when I'm done with Oculus and we get
through the consumer launch of the rift, and that's going to be the right time.
Her saying, you are clearly not in a good headspace to get married.
You are on the war path.
And her being willing to let me start Andoril, do that for a few years.
And then finally, we start dating when she's 15.
So to say, oh wait, 15 years, that's a pretty kind thing to do.
I don't know how that stacks up against all the other kindnesses in my life, but that's one that sure seems pretty kind to me.
Beyond reasonable.
I would say.
Is there anything kinder than someone doing something for you and doing it very much against what they want because they know that it's what you need to do?
I don't think so.
Well, if it wasn't for that, Andral wouldn't be where it is today.
I think there was a power to Andral being started in a fire of passion.
And I feel like if I would have done what she originally wanted, which was take off a year, relax a little bit, two things would be different.
