More quotes by Steve Jobs
Each dream you leave behind is a part of your future that will no longer exist.
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
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
Life can be much broader once you discover one simple fact — everything around you that you call life was made up by people that were no smarter than you.
Steve Jobs
You can't win on innovation unless you have a way to communicate it to customers.
Steve Jobs
My job is to make the whole executive team good enough to be successors, so that's what I try to do.
Steve Jobs

Steve Jobs
Apple stores are intended not just to move boxes, but to enrich lives.
Steve Jobs
iMac is next year's computer for $1,299, not last year's computer for $999.
Steve Jobs
There are sneakers that cost more than an iPod.
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
If you don't have a passion, you'll give up.
Steve Jobs
That's my job - to make sure everything is great.
Steve Jobs
The web is just going to be one more of those major change factors that businesses face every decade.
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
Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything - all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure - these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important.
Steve Jobs
