  This is the one of the best interviews on CE.
  It's not just pride and honor, but something more, that we have one of the greatest engineers of our time on CE.
  Mr. Woz is the perfect idol for someone who is passionate and crazy about engineering.
  I would like to quote his lines here,
  
  

  Don’t think you have to do things the way they have always been done. Believe in yourself. Don’t be afraid to try methods that might turn out to be impossible. Your learning and thinking about the end goal makes it quick to get there by other approaches. Don’t instantly do exactly what you’ve done before. Think quietly, maybe for a few hours or days or more, and know your basic approach. Rather than dig up the designs of the past and using them, try to think of better things than normal. You have learned how to combine components into larger parts, and those into larger ones yet. That means that you know how to construct well with the best resources (parts) and could write the same books you could have looked answers up in. Use pencil and paper and write books and methods and number charts and so-on to create your design without copying others, although it’s ok to look at them to trigger good thinking. Always try to do things with fewer parts and fewer steps. And don’t worry if you don’t use the fanciest tools for debugging. Crude tools force you to think deeper, and in a sense be more creative, just as Jack White speaks of in the movie “It Might Get Loud.”.

  Thank you CE for the wonderful opportunity of reading directly from "The Wizard of Woz"
