Best line I ever heard about NDA's (not mine):

"If you are capable of broaching your NDA in a couple of sentences, you had nothing NDA'able there in the first place."

I heard it at an entrepreneurship panel in 2004, so I don't remember the speaker. I think it might have been somebody from Broadcom.

Interestingly, the people who (misguidedly) asked me to sign an NDA are usually receptive to this explanation when I tell them why I won't sign their NDA.



Broaching or breaching? -- the line might have been either "broaching your idea" or "breaching your NDA".
