More quotes by Steve Jobs
I'm not worried about the country's long-term future. This country is insanely great. What I'm worried about is that we don't talk enough about solutions.
Steve Jobs
Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice.
Steve Jobs
The day I was born songs were on records, phones were tied down, computers needed rooms and the web was fiction. Change the world. You can.
Steve Jobs
The only problem with Microsoft is they just have no taste. They have absolutely no taste. And I don't mean that in a small way, I mean that in a big way, in the sense that they don't think of original ideas, and they don't bring much culture into their products.
Steve Jobs
The web is just going to be one more of those major change factors that businesses face every decade.
Steve Jobs
I told [Bill Gates] I believed every word of what I said but that I should never have said it in public. I wish him the best, I really do. I just think he and Microsoft are a bit narrow. He'd be a broader guy if he had dropped acid once or gone off to an ashram when he was younger.
Steve Jobs
Customers don't measure you on how hard you tried, they measure you on what you deliver.
Steve Jobs
The only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work
Steve Jobs
One: demonstrations always crash. And two: the probability of them crashing goes up exponentially with the number of people watching.
Steve Jobs
Much of what I stumbled into by following my curiosity and intuition turned out to be priceless later on.
Steve Jobs
As individuals, people are inherently good. I have a somewhat more pessimistic view of people in groups. And I remain extremely concerned when I see what's happening in our country, which is in many ways the luckiest place in the world. We don't seem to be excited about making our country a better place for our kids.
Steve Jobs
You can tell a lot about a person by who his or her heroes are.
Steve Jobs
The biggest effect of the personal computer revolution has been to allow millions and millions of people to experience computers themselves decades before they ever would have in the old paradigm.
Steve Jobs
Kick-start your brain. New ideas come from watching something, talking to people, experimenting, asking questions and getting out of the office!
Steve Jobs
There's nothing that makes my day more than getting an e-mail from some random person in the universe who just bought an iPad over in the UK and tells me the story about how it's the coolest product they've ever brought home in their lives. That's what keeps me going.
Steve Jobs
I'm as proud of many of the things we haven't done as the things we have done. Innovation is saying no to a thousand things.
Steve Jobs
You need to have a collaborative hiring process.
Steve Jobs
My job is not to be easy on people. My job is to take these great people we have and to push them and make them even better.
Steve Jobs
Listen to me. We're here to make a dent in the universe. Otherwise why even be here?
Steve Jobs
Apple has some tremendous assets, but I believe without some attention, the company could, could, could - I'm searching for the right word - could, could die.
