We live in an information economy. The problem is that information's usually impossible to get, at least in the right place, at the right time.
Steve Jobs
Image
Everything around you that you call life was made up by people that were no smarter than you and you can change it, you can influence it, you can build your own things that other people can use.
Steve Jobs
Image
The only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle.

I would trade all of my technology for an afternoon with Socrates.

Manage the top line: your strategy, your people, and your products, and the bottom line will follow.
Steve Jobs

I think we're having fun. I think our customers really like our products. And we're always trying to do better.
Steve Jobs
Image
I think it's brought the world a lot closer together, and will continue to do that. There are downsides to everything there are unintended consequences to everything. The most corrosive piece of technology that I've ever seen is called television - but then, again, television, at its best, is magnificent.

I'm the only person I know that's lost a quarter of a billion dollars in one year. It's very character-building.
Steve Jobs

A lot of companies have chosen to downsize, and maybe that was the right thing for them. We chose a different path. Our belief was that if we kept putting great products in front of customers, they would continue to open their wallets.

The best way to create value in the 21st century is to connect Creativity with Technology
Steve Jobs
Image
Creativity is just connecting things. When you ask creative people how they did something, they feel a little guilty because they didn't really do it, they just saw something. It seemed obvious to them after a while. That's because they were able to connect experiences they've had and synthesize new things.
Steve Jobs
Image
I think right now it's a battle for the mindshare of developers and for the mindshare of customers, and right now iPhone and Android are winning that battle.

Great engineers are a huge multiplier.

The Japanese have hit the shores like dead fish. They're just like dead fish washing up on the shores.

If you don't cannibalize yourself, someone else will.
Steve Jobs
Image
We've demonstrated a strong track record of being very disciplined with the use of our cash. We don't let it burn a hole in our pocket, we don't allow it to motivate us to do stupid acquisitions. And so I think that we'd like to continue to keep our powder dry, because we do feel that there are one or more strategic opportunities in the future.

The subscription model of buying music is bankrupt. I think you could make available the Second Coming in a subscription model and it might not be successful.

Focusing is about saying No.
