More quotes by Steve Jobs
One of my beliefs very strongly is that any democracy depends on a free, healthy press.
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
People don't know what they want until you show it to them. That's why I never rely on marketing research. Our task is to read things that are not yet on the page.
Steve Jobs
When we started off we didn't know how to spell software.
Steve Jobs
The biggest effect of the personal computer revolution has been to allow millions and millions of people to experience computers themselves decades before they ever would have in the old paradigm.
Steve Jobs
I was worth about over a million dollars when I was 23 and over ten million dollars when I was 24, and over a hundred million dollars when I was 25 and... it wasn't that important — because I never did it for the money.
Steve Jobs
Life can be much broader. You can embrace it, change it, improve it, make your mark upon it.
Steve Jobs
When I went to school, it was right after the '60s and before this general wave of practical purposefulness had set in.... The idealistic wind of the '60s was still at our backs, though, and most of the people I know who are my age have that engrained in them forever.
Steve Jobs
Do you create anything, or just criticize others work and belittle their motivations?
Steve Jobs
Packaging can be theater, it can create a story
Steve Jobs
I always thought of myself as a humanities person as a kid, but I liked electronics. Then I read something that one of my heroes, Edwin Land of Polaroid, said about the importance of people who could stand at the intersection of humanities and sciences, and I decided that's what I wanted to do.
Steve Jobs
That's what Walt Disney did, and Hewlett and Packard, and the people who built Intel. They created a company to last, not just to make money. That's what I want Apple to be.
Steve Jobs
We try to use the talents we do have to express our deep feelings, to show our appreciation of all the contributions that came before us, and to add something to that flow. That's what's driven me.
Steve Jobs
Don’t let the voice of other people’s opinion drown your inner voice.
Steve Jobs
My mother taught me to read before I went to school, so I was pretty bored in school, and I turned into a little terror. You should have seen us in third grade. We basically destroyed our teacher. We would let snakes loose in the classroom and explode bombs.
Steve Jobs
I was lucky - I found what I love to do early in life.
Steve Jobs
I would trade all of my technology for an afternoon with Socrates.
Steve Jobs
Find people who are competent and really bright, but more importantly, people who care exactly about the same things you care about.
Steve Jobs
If we don’t cannibalize ourselves, someone else will.
Steve Jobs
If you don't cannibalize yourself, someone else will.
