Steve Jobs
Each dream you leave behind is a part of your future that will no longer exist.
Steve Jobs

Steve Jobs

Steve Jobs
One way to drive fear out of a relationship is to realize that your partner's values are the same as yours, that what you care about is exactly what they care about. In my opinion, that drives fear out and makes for a great partnership, whether it's a corporate partnership or a marriage.
Steve Jobs
Overnight success stories take a long time.
Steve Jobs
Design isn't just how it looks. It's how it works.
