More quotes by Steve Jobs
I sat in a garage and invented the future.
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
Mac OS X Tiger will come out long before Longhorn.
Steve Jobs
I try to get people to see what I have. . . . When you run a computer company, you have to get people to buy into your dreams.
Steve Jobs
the best innovation is sometimes the company, the way you organize the company
Steve Jobs
We want to reinvent the phone. What's the killer app? The killer app is making calls! It's amazing how hard it is to make calls on most phones. We want to let you use contacts like never before - sync your iPhone with your PC or mac.
Steve Jobs
Let's go invent tomorrow instead of worrying about what happened yesterday.
Steve Jobs

Steve Jobs
Great art stretches the taste, it doesn't follow tastes.
Steve Jobs
I want to make a dent in the universe.
Steve Jobs
You've got to find what you love.
Steve Jobs
Most people have no concept of how an automatic transmission works, yet they know how to drive a car. You don't have to study physics to understand the laws of motion to drive a car. You don't have to understand any of this stuff to use Macintosh.
Steve Jobs
Things don't have to change the world to be important.
Steve Jobs
Sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick. Don't lose faith.
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
We're gambling on our vision, and we would rather do that than make me too products. Let some other companies do that. For us, it's always the next dream.
Steve Jobs
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.
Steve Jobs
These technologies can make life easier, can let us touch people we might not otherwise. You may have a child with a birth defect and be able to get in touch with other parents and support groups, get medical information, the latest experimental drugs. These things can profoundly influence life. I'm not downplaying that.
Steve Jobs
The only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work
Steve Jobs
I'm not dismissing the value of higher education I'm simply saying it comes at the expense of experience.
Steve Jobs
