In the space of three weeks, I met a fair bunch of the guys who were just starting those little programmers' co-ops, and everybody was talking about starting businesses.

Having seen a non-market economy, I suddenly understood much better what I liked about a market economy.

I became a real free market fanatic. I'm probably less so now than even two or three years ago.

It's not that you have jobs on the Internet, but the Internet makes it possible for more people to build their own jobs. What it does is, it erodes the power of institutions. It used to be you needed an institution to have a job. But, if you look at the three of us on this show, I don't think any of us is really employed by an institution. We run our own lives.

Dyson's Law: Do ask; don't lie.

I think we really made a mistake in separating the Internet from capitalism in a certain way that is bad for our country.

I would like to see us shake-in, instead of a shakeout, in the sense that it's true that there's a lot of junk online, and we have to filter it and so forth.
