''"Our virtues and our failings are inseparable, like force and matter. When they separate, man is no more." ''- Tesla

or (this one may need to be shortened)

''"Let the future tell the truth, and evaluate each one according to his work and accomplishments. The present is theirs; the future, for which I have really worked, is mine." ''-Tesla

I feel that these statements by Tesla himself capture some of the ideologies that we here at iFixit have.  We strive to make a better future for our children, and our children's children, by helping bringing repair manuals to the masses that can be edited and changed over time. As well as working to prevent electronic waste from destroying our planet.

With a number of companies that have recently had DIY hostility ''*cough*Apple*cough*'', we may not be able to exist. We have filled a hole with the resources that we have provided. We are a pain to the likes of those who want to make devices thinner at the cost of repairability, and we stand with our flag unfurled to bring hope for DIYers all around the world. The hope is that by sparking a genuine interest in repair, we inspire those we interact with to learn how to fix even just one thing.
