"I’ve been working on some design stuff, some architecture stuff, some coffee stuff. I want to be better at cooking. I want to learn how to make an automatic watch— you know, like little watches that have lots of moving springs, I’d love to know more about how they’re made and see if I can make one, just one. I’m trying to learn as much as I can about things I don’t know anything about for the next few years."
