But Apple really beats to a different drummer. I used to say that Apple should be the Sony of this business, but in reality, I think Apple should be the Apple of this business.

More quotes by Steve Jobs
You've got to have a problem that you want to solve a wrong that you want to right.
Steve Jobs
Apple is the only company in the world that has all of that under one roof. We can invent a complete a solution that works - and take responsibility for it.
Steve Jobs
It is piracy, not overt online music stores, which is our main competitor.
Steve Jobs
Remembering that I’ll be dead soon is the most important tool I’ve ever encountered to help make the big choices in life. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose.
Steve Jobs
Innovation means saying 'no' to a thousand things.
Steve Jobs
We made the buttons on the screen look so good you'll want to lick them.
Steve Jobs
I'd like the people teaching my kids to be good enough that they could get a job at the company I work for, making a hundred thousand dollars a year. Why should they work at a school for thirty-five to forty thousand dollars if they could get a job here at a hundred thousand dollars a year?
Steve Jobs
If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on.
Steve Jobs
We hire people who want to make the best things in the world.
Steve Jobs
I have enough to last for the rest of my life.
Steve Jobs
I have a great respect for incremental improvement, and I've done that sort of thing in my life, but I've always been attracted to the more revolutionary changes. I don't know why. Because they're harder. They're much more stressful emotionally. And you usually go through a period where everybody tells you that you've completely failed.
Steve Jobs
Pointing is a metaphor we all know. We've done a lot of studies and tests on that, and it's much faster to do all kinds of functions, such as cutting and pasting, with a mouse, so it's not only easier to use but more efficient.
Steve Jobs
Listen to me. We're here to make a dent in the universe. Otherwise why even be here?
Steve Jobs
Japan's very interesting. Some people think it copies things. I don't think that anymore. I think what they do is reinvent things. They will get something that's already been invented and study it until they thoroughly understand it. In some cases, they understand it better than the original inventor.
Steve Jobs
You can tell a lot about a person by who his or her heroes are.
Steve Jobs
I think death is the most wonderful invention of life. It purges the system of these old models that are obsolete.
Steve Jobs
Being the richest man in the cemetery doesn't matter to me.
Steve Jobs
One: demonstrations always crash. And two: the probability of them crashing goes up exponentially with the number of people watching.
Steve Jobs
You can't connect the dots looking forward you can only connect them looking backwards.
Steve Jobs
People don't know what they want until you show it to them. That's why I never rely on marketing research. Our task is to read things that are not yet on the page.
Steve Jobs
