Back to the Future

Rolling Stone interview with Steve Jobs from 1994. He saw a lot of things coming, but it's his core belief in technology and its relationship to man that's fascinating:

"Technology is nothing. What's important is that you have a faith in people, that they're basically good and smart, and if you give them tools, they'll do wonderful things with them. It's not the tools that you have faith in — tools are just tools. They work, or they don't work. It's people you have faith in or not. Yeah, sure, I'm still optimistic I mean, I get pessimistic sometimes but not for long."
