You've got to have a problem that you want to solve a wrong that you want to right.
Steve Jobs

What had been the focus of my entire adult life was gone, and it was devastating. I didn't really know what to do for a few months. I felt that I had let the previous generation of entrepreneurs down. I was a very public failure.

As individuals, people are inherently good. I have a somewhat more pessimistic view of people in groups. And I remain extremely concerned when I see what's happening in our country, which is in many ways the luckiest place in the world. We don't seem to be excited about making our country a better place for our kids.

Creativity is just connecting things. When you ask creative people how they did something, they feel a little guilty because they didn't really do it, they just saw something. It seemed obvious to them after a while. That's because they were able to connect experiences they've had and synthesize new things.

Innovation is saying 'no' to 1,000 things.
Steve Jobs

Kick-start your brain. New ideas come from watching something, talking to people, experimenting, asking questions and getting out of the office!

When we started off we didn't know how to spell software.
Steve Jobs

Most people make the mistake of thinking design is what it looks like. People think it's this veneer - that the designers are handed this box and told, 'Make it look good!' That's not what we think design is. It's not just what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works.

The seven-inch tablets are tweeners: too big to compete with a smartphone, and too small to compete with an iPad.
Steve Jobs

Let's go invent tomorrow instead of worrying about what happened yesterday.

Customers don't measure you on how hard you tried, they measure you on what you deliver.

Have the courage to follow your heart and intuition.
