We need to provide humanitarian assistance to civilians and accept our fair share of refugees.

At its best, technology can empower people in extraordinary ways.

Political divisions may be fierce, but there is at least one issue that most Americans agree on: net neutrality.

On so many issues, California leads the country.

There should be an understanding and trust that your privacy and data will be protected.

Internet service providers should not be permitted to block, throttle and unfairly favor certain content, applications, services or devices.

Sometimes, in Silicon Valley, there is this attitude that we know best and we can change the world. The boldness allows us to invent the future. But, we need more empathy for those who are left behind and a recognition that Silicon Valley can't just call the shots and expect change.

We need to think about what Silicon Valley can contribute to the country - not just that somehow government bureaucrats should listen to our way.

The framers understood that the momentous decision to go to war requires the informed consent of the American people, expressed through their elected representatives.

We have to return to a foreign policy of restraint, one that develops our capabilities and our potential in communities across America, and not become bogged down in unwinnable conflicts that lead to greater resentment of the United States, and that don't advance American interests.

Net neutrality is at the core of what we love about the Internet. Put simply, it allows any individual or business equal access to online services.

We have a choice in Silicon Valley. We can either continue to exist as an island to ourselves, focused on wealth creation and innovation... or we can understand that we are in the middle of a software revolution and answer the nation's call to provide economic opportunity and technology to places left behind.

I don't think American life requires you to be on Facebook. It does require you to have access to the Internet.

We needed overtime laws, we needed unionization, we needed to figure out how to distribute the Industrial Revolution's gains with equity, and we're going through something similar with the technology revolution.

We can't have all the concentration of wealth in a few places in this country. We've got to create economic opportunity and new industries in communities that feel left behind.

We have tried to change regimes through a variety of means - over 80 times, by some estimates. Many of these efforts were counterproductive to U.S. interests.

We have an economy that's really geared toward rewarding the investor class. What are we doing to make sure that people who want to have a middle-class life are able to keep up?

I have helped shape in the past the Democratic Party's agenda on innovation.

Of course it would be great to have more scientists in Congress. But what I'd love is to have another Lyndon Johnson in Congress who makes climate change his first priority. We need people who know how to work the system and the institution.

One thing I want to do is get Silicon Valley to think harder about those who have been left behind by the technology revolution. It has created huge winners for those who are able to understand it and are adept at it. But it has also displaced a tremendous number of jobs.

I do believe American leadership in the world matters, that we can't just disengage from the world.

The challenge for America is: can we become a multicultural, multiracial democracy? It would be historic. It would be America's greatest contribution to human civilization.

Imagine a world where Apple, Google, and Intel were Chinese companies. It would be scary.

The criticism of the Democrats in the past is that they were too timid. They ran on consultant-driven platitudes and didn't offer a compelling enough vision.

There should be some commonsense principles that will assure the American public that their rights are going to be protected online.

America should always stand for human rights and freedom, but not through endless military intervention.

If anything, prolonged overseas military presence breeds radicalization.

My honest answer to what's going to happen to the future of jobs is I don't know.

When I used to work, I used to come home every evening and see my kids. Now sometimes we can be on the road for six days a week or three weeks at a time.

I think I didn't realise the commitment that came after winning the Worlds.

It doesn't matter what that crowd's doing. You've still got to go up there and do your stuff to win.

If you can deliver the big shots at the right time, they hurt.

Having a house with seven-and-a-half acres of land and a swimming pool wasn't really on my agenda when in my old job and while I haven't spent too much money on cars or any other expensive gadgets, I did treat myself to a JCB digger.

Winning the worlds changed everything for me and my family.

Darts in such a little time has really changed my life.

I get to see great places like Vegas - there's a lot to take in, isn't there? - and to have big names tell you that you're great, it's amazing.

I had to get used to the TV tournaments and the big stages.

As long as I feel good in myself I think I will perform better.'

I'm not a massive spender. I look at the bank balance building, but it just looks like Monopoly money, really.

I've never cheated at anything.

My wife looked after children with disabilities. She is brilliant at it. I admire her because I could not do it, it would be heart-wrenching. It takes a real sort of person to do that and not get attached because I would.

Being a world champion was great, don't get me wrong, but it also caused me a lot of problems.

I might play darts on TV now but really I've not changed.

I actually gave up playing darts for three years after my little boy was born.

If you want to do well you have to sacrifice certain things.

I missed the birth of my third child through darts. I saw her three times in eight weeks. It was very hard. You head does get a little bit scrambled because you are not there.

Without my family, it wouldn't have been possible to do what I have done. They know I play darts for them - that everything is to give them a better life.

I only play to win. I don't like losing. I never look at the money or the bigger picture.

I always try to conduct myself in the right way - I always speak honestly and from the heart.

My target has always been world No.1, I want that.
