We used to live in a world where the price of resources came down steadily, and now the world has changed. You have a great mismatch between finite resources and exponential population growth.
3
The costs of solar energy across the world have come down so fast that its growth as a cheap, clean energy source has been exponential.
4
The Internet, the network of networks, is growing at an exponential pace. It’s growing so fast, in fact, nobody really knows how many people use the Internet.
5
I feel humiliated that I live in a country that demands more already. Why do we cling to the notion that not only must we maintain the current level of consumption, but that it must continue to grow by an exponential factor of 2 to 7 percent every year?
6
Exponential growth in access to the Internet, satellite television and radio, cell phones, and P.D.A.’s means that breaking news now reaches virtually every corner of the globe.
7
I’m a big believer in the transformative, exponential power of art, like a reverse pyramid scheme.
8
Our brains are already bad at seeing exponential curves.
9
I basically look at how exponential emerging technological changes runs counter-intuitive to the way our linear brains make projections about change, and so we don’t realize how fast the future is coming.
10
People need to understand how exponential technologies are impacting the business landscape. They need to do some future-casting and look at how industries are evolving and being transformed.
11
I feel humiliated that I live in a country that demands more already. Why do we cling to the notion that not only must we maintain the current level of consumption, but that it must continue to grow by an exponential factor of 2 to 7 percent every year?
12
When you think of the exponential speed and scale of expansion of social media or a service, you have to believe that it is equally possible to rapidly transform the lives of those who have long stood on the margins of hope.
13
Life itself is exponential.
Jeff Rich
14
If we can reach populations in developing countries and help them understand the value of their indigenous diet and lifestyles rather than copying ours, perhaps we can reverse the exponential rise in cardiovascular disease that is plaguing them.
15
You need collaboration of its people; it’s the only way to improve a company – can you ignore that? You need a win-win for every sub-group, which will ensure exponential growth for a company.
Eliyahu Goldratt
16
The real energy occurs in each connection between two people, which can bring about exponential returns.
17
The development of exponential technologies like new biotech and AI hint at a larger trend – one in which humanity can shift from a world of constraints to one in which we think with a long-term purpose where sustainable food production, housing, and fresh water is available for all.
18
Technology has advanced more in the last thirty years than in the previous two thousand. The exponential increase in advancement will only continue.
Niels Bohr
19
The Internet, the network of networks, is growing at an exponential pace. It’s growing so fast, in fact, nobody really knows how many people use the Internet.
20
Well, the security business has been growing. I think security is one of those areas where it’s to some degree not linear but maybe exponential growth.
21
We’re extremely excited about the assets that Yahoo has in the areas of Sports and Finance and Email and News. You match those up with AOL, and we’ve just made an exponential leap in capabilities here.
Lowell McAdam
22
I didn’t start making a real living until eight or nine years in. Even after ‘Goodfellas’ came out, I was still working as a waiter, and people would recognize me – that was an odd experience. But when ‘The Sopranoshit, that was like an exponential leap.
23
Unlike us, machines do not have a ‘natureconsistent across vast reaches of time. They are, at least to begin with, whatever we set in motion – with an inbuilt tendency towards the exponential.
24
I’m a big believer in the transformative, exponential power of art, like a reverse pyramid scheme.
25
Very few people spend time with themselves anymore. Which could be the reason why there has been an exponential rise in jerks. Do the world a favour. Stay in, you’re not missing anything you can’t make up for the next time round.
26
It is not enough to receive support, no matter, how needed it may be. It is fundamental to know how to receive this support and ensure that its result is exponential.
Kay Rala Xanana Gusmao
27
Life itself is exponential.
Jeff Rich
28
Success is measured in months for me. When my health fails, it will fail quickly. Tumors grow on an exponential curve.
29
Technology advances at exponential rates, and human institutions and societies do not. They adapt at much slower rates. Those gaps get wider and wider.
30
The global equalization of wages and the exponential growth in technology has created a job-killing machine that’s only going to get worse.
31
The number of queries in a large dataset is exponential, and it’s growing exponentially. No matter how fast you make your system, you’re never going to be able to get all that information.
Gurjeet Singh
32
Epic production has less to do with your willpower and more to do with the routines you install. Get those right, and you’ll enjoy exponential results automatically.
33
To create exponential growth in health care, we need to put tremendous resources and focus behind the best human minds working in this field.
34
The human brain is really bad at thinking about exponential things.
35
When you think of the exponential speed and scale of expansion of social media or a service, you have to believe that it is equally possible to rapidly transform the lives of those who have long stood on the margins of hope.
36
Unlike us, machines do not have a ‘natureconsistent across vast reaches of time. They are, at least to begin with, whatever we set in motion – with an inbuilt tendency towards the exponential.
37
Growing new limbs, copying internal organs like a Xerox machine, exponential increases in computing power, better eyes and ears – I could read stories like this endlessly.
38
The only way to generate sustained exponential growth is to make whatever you’re making sufficiently good.
39
You need collaboration of its people; it’s the only way to improve a company – can you ignore that? You need a win-win for every sub-group, which will ensure exponential growth for a company.
Eliyahu Goldratt

An exponential growth is a simple doubling. One becomes two becomes four.
