Im doing more school work and using linux as the subject

I am looking for some sort of quote from Linus Torvalds stating something a long the lines of security is always first.. or security is more important... Something along these lines, But I need a date with the quote and I need it as old as possible

Anyone know of any sites I can look for for this information? Google is not being friendly with this subject.

Hmm.. tough one. I found something interesting though, but perhaps you've seen it:

Good quote, I had seen the article. I have a quote from steve ballmer from a recent article that states something along the lines, we took security as a number one priorty three years ago.

I was hoping to find something from torvalds before this point that stated security is always a main concern. Doesnt seem to be working well though.
