“A patent is simply and purely a grant of monopoly. Why would a supposedly enlightened government, which has laws against monopolies in other forms, grant them? The original idea was the opposite: you wanted the inventor to publish a description of the invention instead of keeping it secret. To induce him to, you offered, legally, some of the protection that he would have gotten by keeping the secret, enough to get a good head start on the competition.

It's not a bad idea, if it were done right...”
J. Storrs Hall, Nanofuture: What's Next For Nanotechnology

“The leading cause of death among active pilots is ... motorcycle accidents.”
J Storrs Hall, Where Is My Flying Car?: A Memoir of Future Past

“Isaac Asimov’s speculation—The appliances of 2014 will have no electric cords, of course—was completely reasonable, given the physics and the rate of technological improvement up until then. We really, really should have had atomic batteries by now. And guess what? Your iPhone would never need charging, and your Tesla would have a range of 3.5 million miles. It is a possibility.”
J Storrs Hall, Where Is My Flying Car?: A Memoir of Future Past
