I started passing out the schematics and the code listings for the computer, telling everyone here it is. It's small, it's simple, it's inexpensive: Build your own. No idea to start a company. Steve Jobs came by later and say, you know, people are interested. Why don't we start a company?

I don't believe anything really revolutionary has ever been invented by committee... I'm going to give you some advice that might be hard to take. That advice is: Work alone... Not on a committee. Not on a team.

I think that the anti-Microsoft sentiment is simply due to their having been so successful selling a lot of crap.

Like people including Stephen Hawking and Elon Musk have predicted, I agree that the future is scary and very bad for people.
