Steve Jobs

Steve Jobs
Some people can do one thing magnificently, like Michelangelo, and others make things like semiconductors or build 747 airplanes -- that type of work requires legions of people. In order to do things well, that can't be done by one person, you must find extraordinary people.
Steve Jobs
We've got to make the small things unforgettable.
Steve Jobs

Steve Jobs
Don't be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people's thinking.
Steve Jobs
It's technology married with liberal arts, married with the humanities, that yields us the results that make our heart sing.
Steve Jobs
The real art is knowing what to leave out, not what to put in.
Steve Jobs
One of my beliefs very strongly is that any democracy depends on a free, healthy press.
