More quotes by 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
Most people never pick up the phone and call. Most people never ask, and that’s what separates the people who do things from the people who just dream about them.
Steve Jobs
The engineering is long gone in most PC companies. In the consumer electronics companies, they don't understand the software parts of it. And so you really can't make the products that you can make at Apple anywhere else right now. Apple's the only company that has everything under one roof.
Steve Jobs
The things I've done in my life have required a lot of years of work before they took off.
Steve Jobs
I hate the way people use PowerPoints instead of thinking
Steve Jobs
Design isn't just how it looks. It's how it works.
Steve Jobs
Making an enduring company was both harder and more important than making a great product.
Steve Jobs
But innovation comes from people meeting up in the hallways or calling each other at 10:30 at night with a new idea, or because they realized something that shoots holes in how we've been thinking about a problem.
Steve Jobs
Let's go invent tomorrow...
Steve Jobs
The tragedy is that Dell didn't win it - we lost it.
Steve Jobs
It isn't the consumers' job to know what they want.
Steve Jobs
Don't be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people's thinking.
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
Some mistakes will be made along the way. That's good. Because some decisions are being made along the way. We'll find the mistakes. We'll fix them.
Steve Jobs
the best innovation is sometimes the company, the way you organize the company
Steve Jobs
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.
Steve Jobs
Listen to me. We're here to make a dent in the universe. Otherwise why even be here?
Steve Jobs
If you keep your eye on the profit, you’re going to skimp on the product. But if you focus on making really great products, then the profits will follow.
Steve Jobs
My kids accuse me and my wife of being fascists and overly concerned about tech, and they say that none of their friends have the same rules... That's because we have seen the dangers of technology firsthand. I've seen it in myself, I don't want to see that happen to my kids.
Steve Jobs
No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don't want to die to get there. And yet death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it. And that is as it should be, because Death is very likely the single best invention of Life. It is Life's change agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new.
