In case you have nothing else going on this fine Saturday morning, consider spending it with Satoshi.
figured this could be a great way to compile a big list of cool stuff Satoshi said in the past.

“If you don’t believe me or don’t get it, I don’t have the time to try to convince you, sorry”

Reminding myself of this quote is the same vibe as Dwight reminding himself not to be an idiot

"The root problem with conventional currency is all the trust that's required to make it work. The central bank must be trusted not to debase the currency, but the history of fiat currencies is full of breaches of that trust."

"It might make sense to get some in case it catches on."

I don't believe a second, compatible implementation of Bitcoin will ever be a good idea

”A lot of people automatically dismiss e-currency as a lost cause because of all the companies that failed since the 1990’s. I hope it’s obvious it was only the centrally controlled nature of those systems that doomed them.”

"Hey, can you go slow with this? (...) Look, I don't care if people hoard the Bitcoin, I don't care if the wealth is concentrated. But right now, the big attraction is that anybody can download Bitcoin and start mining with their laptop." (from Satoshi's email to Hanyecz, who described his GPU miner on bitcointalk.org)

Dont hate me. This is my favorit list best Satoshi Nakamoto quote:
"I'm better with code than with words." - Satoshi Nakamoto
"I am not Dorian Nakamoto." - Satoshi Nakamoto
(Note: This quote is in reference to a Newsweek article that falsely identified a person named Dorian Nakamoto as the creator of Bitcoin. The real Satoshi Nakamoto denied any connection to that individual.)
"I am not a human being, I am an idea." - Satoshi Nakamoto
(Note: This quote is often attributed to Satoshi Nakamoto, suggesting that the identity of the creator is less important than the revolutionary idea behind Bitcoin and blockchain technology.)
"I'm not a god. I can't fix it if it breaks." - Satoshi Nakamoto
(Note: This quote reflects Satoshi Nakamoto's acknowledgment of the limitations of his role as the creator of Bitcoin.)
"I think the governments of the world will wake up and see that they are powerless to stop it." - Satoshi Nakamoto
(Note: This quote expresses Satoshi Nakamoto's belief in the resilience and decentralized nature of Bitcoin, suggesting that governments will eventually recognize its unstoppable nature.)
"You will not find a solution to political problems in cryptography." - Satoshi Nakamoto
(Note: This quote reflects Satoshi Nakamoto's view that while cryptography and technology can provide certain benefits, they cannot solve all political or societal issues.)

I guess I'll go with, "WikiLeaks has kicked the hornet's nest, and the swarm is headed towards us." But, take your pick...
All versions of "Kicking": https://hive.blog/bitcoin/@crrdlx/satoshi (pdf, txt, print, and inscribed onto Bitcoin blockchain as an ordinal)

I’m sure that in 20 years there will either be very large transaction volume or no volume.

Here it is:
"What is needed is an electronic payment system based on cryptographic proof instead of trust, ..."
Taken from the bitcoin whitepaper.

"Yes but we can win a major battle in the arms race and gain a new territory of freedom for several years."

this was in reply to someone who said to him "You will not find a solution to political problems in cryptography"

Eventually at most only 21 million coins for 6.8 billion people in the world if it really gets huge.

“Sigh... why delete a wallet instead of moving it aside and keeping the old copy just in case? You should never delete a wallet.”
reply
We have proposed a system for electronic transactions without relying on trust. We started with the usual framework of coins made from digital signatures, which provides strong control of ownership, but is incomplete without a way to prevent double-spending. To solve this, we proposed a peer-to-peer network using proof-of-work to record a public history of transactions that quickly becomes computationally impractical for an attacker to change if honest nodes control a majority of CPU power.

I created Bitcoin not for the financial meltdown of 2008 but a global meltdown of 2028.

Was this actually said by him?
reply
No, those aren't Satoshi's words. Quick search at https://ipfs.io/ipfs/QmPDzjNe6gN66seirdgKMsurqG3jpJpWWGGoat6gbhxz2D comes up empty.

Thx for that. I couldn't ever remember coming across that line.
