There were a few gems in the interview...

"We need public oversight ... some way for trusted public figures to advocate for us. We need a watchdog that watches Congress, because if we're not informed, we can't consent to these (government) policies."

A somewhat ok paraphrasing is here: http://www.cnn.com/2014/03/10/tech/web/edward-snowden-sxsw/

One remark stuck with me "....the NSA surveillance was setting fire to the future of the Internet". Absolutely!
