#+begin_quote

  - Access to computers---and anything that might teach you something
    about the way the world works---should be unlimited and total.
    Always yield to the Hands-On Imperative!
  - All information should be free.
  - Mistrust Authority---Promote Decentralization.
  - Hackers should be judged by their hacking, not bogus criteria such
    as degrees, age, race, or position.
  - You can create art and beauty on a computer.
  - Computers can change your life for the better.
