More quotes by Steve Jobs
The greatest artists like Dylan, Picasso and Newton risked failure. And if we want to be great, we've got to risk it, too.
Steve Jobs
I was in the parking lot, with the key in the car, and I thought to myself: If this is my last night on earth, would I rather spend it at a business meeting or with this woman? I ran across the parking lot, asked her if she'd have dinner with me. She said yes, we walked into town, and we've been together ever since.
Steve Jobs
I can help the next generation remember the lineage of great companies here and how to continue the tradition. The Valley has been very supportive of me. I should do my best to repay.
Steve Jobs
If today were my last day, would I do what I'm doing?...If the answer was 'No' too many days in a row, I'd make a change.
Steve Jobs
I'd say we [Apple Inc.] are the most creative of the technology companies and definitely the most artist-friendly. Almost everyone in the music business uses a Mac and everyone has an iPod.
Steve Jobs
If you don't cannibalize yourself, someone else will.
Steve Jobs
It's like when IBM drove a lot of innovation out of the computer industry before the microprocessor came along. Eventually, Microsoft will crumble because of complacency, and maybe some new things will grow. But until that happens, until there's some fundamental technology shift, it's just over.
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
If you want to live your life in a creative way, as an artist, you have to not look back too much. You have to be willing to take whatever you've done and whoever you were and throw them away.
Steve Jobs
Don't be afraid, you can do it.
Steve Jobs
So [Polaroid's Dr. Edwin] Land, at 75, went off to spend the remainder of his life doing pure science, trying to crack the code of color vision. The man is a national treasure. I don't understand why people like that can't be held up as models: This is the most incredible thing to be - not an astronaut, not a football player - but this.
Steve Jobs
Simple can be harder than complex. You have to work hard to get your thinking clean to make it simple.
Steve Jobs
If I had never dropped in on that single course in college, the Mac would have never had multiple typefaces or proportionally spaced fonts. And since Windows just copied the Mac, it's likely that no personal computer would have them.
Steve Jobs
The were good times, there were hard times, but there were never bad times
Steve Jobs
Intuition is a very powerful thing, more powerful than intellect.
Steve Jobs
For the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: 'If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?' And whenever the answer has been 'No' for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something.
Steve Jobs
You have to trust in something - your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.
Steve Jobs
Companies must have a noble cause, and it's the leaders job to transform that noble cause into such an inspiring vision, that it will attract the most talented people in the world to want to join it.
Steve Jobs
There are sneakers that cost more than an iPod.
Steve Jobs
We don't settle for anything less than excellence.
Steve Jobs
