Linus Torvalds

Linus Torvalds
If Microsoft ever does applications for Linux it means I've won.
Linus Torvalds
Most of the good programmers do programming not because they expect to get paid or get adulation by the public, but because it is fun to program.
Linus Torvalds
Avoiding complexity reduces bugs.
Linus Torvalds
I don't doubt at all that virtualization is useful in some areas. What I doubt rather strongly is that it will ever have the kind of impact that the people involved in virtualization want it to have.
Linus Torvalds
I actually think that I'm a rather optimistic and happy person it's just that I'm not a very positive person, if you see the difference.
Linus Torvalds
If it is relevant there is always somebody else out there.
