Human creativity is non linear. The right idea can be worse for its wrong idea. And so it's only a small number of innovators that are needed that really, really drive any endeavor, whether it's philosophy or law, politics or technology or society.

Every revolution, whether it's scientific, political, technological, physical, is driven by a small number of like docket operating with each other to sort of create the institutions. If you're intelligent at some point, the thing that you create the most, more than anything else is a company. I think what I'm saying is that creating institutions and communities that will completely change things for everybody.
