• Si te quedas despierto hasta tarde y tienes una hora más de trabajo, puedes quedarte despierto otra hora más sin toparte con un muro y tener que parar. Mientras que si empiezas de nuevo puedes tardar tres o cuatro horas, si sólo trabajas esa hora más puedes terminar.

• The Open Source theorem says that if you give away source code, innovation will occur. Certainly, Unix was done this way... However, the corollary states that the innovation will occur elsewhere. No matter how many people you hire. So the only way to get close to the state of the art is to give the people who are going to be doing the innovative things the means to do it. That's why we had built-in source code with Unix. Open source is tapping the energy that's out there.
