More quotes by Steve Jobs
You've got to find what you love. And that is as true for your work as it is for your lovers.
Steve Jobs
In the first 30 years of your life, you make your habits. For the last 30 years of your life, your habits make you.
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
We do not say anything about future products. We work on them in secret, then we announce them.
Steve Jobs
We just wanted to build the best thing we could build
Steve Jobs
The lunatics have taken over the asylum and we can do anything we want.
Steve Jobs
So when a good idea comes, you know, part of my job is to move it around, just see what different people think, get people talking about it, argue with people about it, get ideas moving among that group of 100 people, get different people together to explore different aspects of it quietly, and, you know – just explore things.
Steve Jobs
Make it like a sunflower.
Steve Jobs
Apple stores are intended not just to move boxes, but to enrich lives.
Steve Jobs
I'm not worried about the country's long-term future. This country is insanely great. What I'm worried about is that we don't talk enough about solutions.
Steve Jobs
I have enough to last for the rest of my life.
Steve Jobs
A lot of people think big business in America is a bad thing. I think it's a really good thing. Most people in business are ethical, hard-working, good people. And it's a meritocracy.
Steve Jobs
You're already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.
Steve Jobs
I met Woz when I was 13, at a friend's garage. He was about 18. He was, like, the first person I met who knew more electronics than I did at that point. We became good friends, because we shared an interest in computer and we had a sense of humor. We pulled all kinds of pranks together.
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
It is piracy, not overt online music stores, which is our main competitor.
Steve Jobs
The real art is knowing what to leave out, not what to put in.
Steve Jobs
Do not try to do everything. Do one thing well.
Steve Jobs
I told [Bill Gates] I believed every word of what I said but that I should never have said it in public. I wish him the best, I really do. I just think he and Microsoft are a bit narrow. He'd be a broader guy if he had dropped acid once or gone off to an ashram when he was younger.
Steve Jobs
Life can be much broader. You can embrace it, change it, improve it, make your mark upon it.
