I'm not dismissing the value of higher education I'm simply saying it comes at the expense of experience.

More quotes by 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
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
Unless you've a lot of passion about this, you're not gonna survive. You're gonna give it up. So you've got to have an idea or a wrong that you want to right that you're passionate about, otherwise you're not gonna have the perseverance to stick it through. I think it's half the battle right there.
Steve Jobs
It wasn't all romantic. I didn't have a dorm room, so I slept on the floor in friends' rooms, I returned coke bottles for the 5¢ deposits to buy food with, and I would walk the 7 miles across town every Sunday night to get one good meal a week at the Hare Krishna temple. I loved it.
Steve Jobs
What we're doing here will send a giant ripple through the universe.
Steve Jobs
You've got to have a problem that you want to solve a wrong that you want to right.
Steve Jobs
The most important thing is a person. A person who incites your curiosity and feeds your curiosity and machines cannot do that in the same way that people can.
Steve Jobs
You have to have a lot of passion for what you do... because if you don't, any rational person would give up.
Steve Jobs
My job is not to be easy on people. My job is to take these great people we have and to push them and make them even better.
Steve Jobs
It wasn't that Microsoft was so brilliant or clever in copying the Mac, it's that the Mac was a sitting duck for 10 years. That's Apple's problem: Their differentiation evaporated.
Steve Jobs
The seven-inch tablets are tweeners: too big to compete with a smartphone, and too small to compete with an iPad.
Steve Jobs
We have never worried about numbers. In the marketplace, Apple is trying to focus the spotlight on products, because products really make a difference. You can't con people in this business. The products speak for themselves.
Steve Jobs
Don't be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people's thinking.
Steve Jobs
The creative industries tend to dismiss technology as just something to buy and not understand how hard it is and how creative it can be as well.
Steve Jobs
I think the Macintosh was created by a group of people who felt that ah there wasn't a strict vision between sort of science and art.
Steve Jobs
Focusing is about saying No.
Steve Jobs
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.
Steve Jobs
The real art is knowing what to leave out, not what to put in.
Steve Jobs
When you're young, you look at television and think, there's a conspiracy. The networks have conspired to dumb us down. But when you get a little older, you realize that's not true. The networks are in business to give people exactly what they want.
Steve Jobs
Team, it turned out that Michael Dell wasn't perfect at predicting the future. Based on today's stock market close, Apple is worth more than Dell. Stocks go up and down and things may be different tomorrow but I thought it was worth a moment of reflection today.
Steve Jobs
