More quotes by Steve Wozniak
You should stay closely connected to the technology when you start your company.
Steve Wozniak

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

Steve Wozniak
I do not like to talk about the future. I don't like to be one of those people. It's so easy to have a very vague idea and say, oh, computers will be 3D-ish and then 10 years later I'll say I predicted it 10 years ahead. I don't think that's honest and I don't think that's valid and worth anything.
Steve Wozniak
I thought Microsoft did a lot of things that were good and right building parts of the browser into the operating system. Then I thought it out and came up with reasons why it was a monopoly
Steve Wozniak
In the end, I hope there's a little note somewhere that says I designed a good computer.
Steve Wozniak
