Around '93, '94, the conventional wisdom about the Internet was that it was a toy for academics and researchers. So it was very, very underestimated for about two years.

Once you have mastered time, you will understand how true it is that most people overestimate what they can accomplish in a year - and underestimate what they can achieve in a decade!

We underestimate our people. Given a challenge, most of our people will do it, especially the youngsters who take to technology like duck to water.

Sometimes you look at footballers and think they're selfish or they don't bring a good image to society. But sometimes people underestimate footballers and their capacity to have a strong opinion and sympathy for others.

Never underestimate the power of a fresh coat of white paint.

Don't you dare underestimate the power of your own instinct.

Never underestimate the power of the ocean.

Never underestimate the power of confidence. If you believe you're the dopest thing walking, you might convince people of the same just because you're so headstrong about it as a fact.

Never underestimate the power of intrinsic values. They inspire every struggle for a better world.

The power of visibility can never be underestimated.

Never underestimate or mock peace.

Don't underestimate the cosmetic power of sunglasses. It's worth spending a bit of money on a quality pair. I usually go for Dior or Louis Vuitton.

Never underestimate the power of jealousy and the power of envy to destroy. Never underestimate that.

I don't underestimate audiences' intelligence. Audiences are much brighter than media gives them credit for. When people went to a movie once a week in the 1930s and that was their only exposure to media, you were required to do a different grammar.

There is no such thing as an underestimate of average intelligence.

Here's the thing: I think the media underestimates the intelligence of the moviegoer. We need to be fulfilled. People want to sit down and think, and I try to make people think.

We should never overestimate an audience's culture, but we should never underestimate their intelligence.

Never underestimate the intelligence of the audience; make good programmes, and they will come.

The power of pop culture stories should not be underestimated, and there is an enormous potential for inspirational stories that can have a positive, transformative effect on our lives.
