The self-driving car is coming. And right now, our best supply of organs come from car accidents... Once we have self-driving cars, we can actually reduce the number of accidents, but the next problem then would be organ replacement.  (Bre Pettis Quotes) One of my psychoses is that I feel like I can do anything. Actually, I believe anybody can do and make anything, even things that don’t exist. The making isn’t the hard part; it’s having faith. If you do only reasonable things, you’ll never start your own business.  (Bre Pettis Quotes) My father was a ham radio geek, and I remember the glow of the vacuum tubes from a Hammarlund receiver that became a hand-me-down to me.  (Bre Pettis Quotes) For me, when you put a MakerBot in a school, you add a manufacturing education to the environment where I think we can really empower the next generation to compete in the global economy.  (Bre Pettis Quotes) When people have a MakerBot, they have a different mindset from everybody else who grew up as a consumer. Instead of thinking, ‘I need to go buy that,’ they first think, ‘Do I need to go buy that? I could just MakerBot that.’  (Bre Pettis Quotes) If you want to be a person who buys stuff at the dollar store, you can be that person. If you want to make really cool stuff on your desktop and be the manufacturer, that is a lifestyle.  (Bre Pettis Quotes) I’ve watched with amazement as Local Motors has pioneered a co-creation and micro-manufacturing model that has democratized the development and production of complex machines, effectively transforming consumer choice from supply-driven to demand-driven.  (Bre Pettis Quotes) We started MakerBot in 2009 and made a conscious decision to educate people with the possibilities they could do with 3D printing and share with people what is possible.  (Bre Pettis Quotes) We got involved with the RepRap Project, a community focused on making 3-D printers that could make copies of themselves and help create a world without money. We started making prototypes.  (Bre Pettis Quotes) One of the criticisms we get is, ‘Does the world need more plastic crap?’ But you have to look beyond the plastic crap, to the design, to the experience, to the empowering nature of the MakerBot and the community.  (Bre Pettis Quotes) What I like on Kickstarter is when I see real innovation and I see people building something new. It makes me sad when I see things that are just the same technology; you aren’t passing the technology forward.  (Bre Pettis Quotes) I still have the first bottle opener I made on my MakerBot. Things you fabricate are things you care more about. I think there will always be people who go and buy crap at the dollar store. But I think it is cool when people craft things themselves.  (Bre Pettis Quotes) We have always moved with this approach of sharing and educating people with what they can unlock with 3D printing.  (Bre Pettis Quotes) The people who are getting 3-D printers at home are pioneers, kind of like the people who bought Apple IIs in 1981. Adults are usually the last people to get it. The kids are like, ‘Get out of my way, I want at this thing.’ They immediately start getting creative.  (Bre Pettis Quotes) My parents had a software company making children’s software for the Apple II , Commodore 64 and Acorn computers. They hired these teenagers to program the software, and these guys were true hackers, trying to get more colors and sound and animation out of those computers.  (Bre Pettis Quotes) We raised $10 million in 2011. Our rule was, we wouldn’t accept money from anybody we didn’t want to have dinner with  (Bre Pettis Quotes) Done is the engine of more  (Bre Pettis Quotes) I like to make things. Its been part of my identity since I was a kid  (Bre Pettis Quotes) You can get really far by putting your ideas out there and letting other people build on them  (Bre Pettis Quotes) We already live in the futureit’s not like we’re waiting for something to happenit’s just a matter of doing it  (Bre Pettis Quotes)
