More quotes by 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
The problem with the Internet startup craze isn’t that too many people are starting companies it’s that too many people aren’t sticking with it.
Steve Jobs
The design of the Mac wasn't what it looked like, although that was part of it. Primarily, it was how it worked. To design something really well, you have to get it. You have to really grok what it's all about. It takes a passionate commitment to really thoroughly understand something, chew it up, not just quickly swallow it.
Steve Jobs
Don't settle, as with all matters of the heart you'll know when you find it
Steve Jobs
You should never go to a meeting or make a telephone call without a clear idea of what you are trying to achieve.
Steve Jobs
Innovation means saying 'no' to a thousand things.
Steve Jobs
If you want to live your life in a creative way, as an artist, you have to not look back too much. You have to be willing to take whatever you've done and whoever you were and throw them away.
Steve Jobs
Great engineers are a huge multiplier.
Steve Jobs
Mac OS X Tiger will come out long before Longhorn.
Steve Jobs
We've gone through the operating system and looked at everything and asked how can we simplify this and make it more powerful at the same time.
Steve Jobs
It's not about pop culture, and it's not about fooling people, and it's not about convincing people that they want something they don't. We figure out what we want. And I think we're pretty good at having the right discipline to think through whether a lot of other people are going to want it, too. That's what we get paid to do.
Steve Jobs
Have the courage to follow your heart and intuition.
Steve Jobs
You can't win on innovation unless you have a way to communicate it to customers.
Steve Jobs
It took us three years to build the NeXT computer. If we'd given customers what they said they wanted, we'd have built a computer they'd have been happy with a year after we spoke to them - not something they'd want now.
Steve Jobs
It isn't the consumers' job to know what they want.
Steve Jobs
I'm not dismissing the value of higher education I'm simply saying it comes at the expense of experience.
Steve Jobs
I would trade all of my technology for an afternoon with Socrates.
Steve Jobs
Creativity is just connecting things.
Steve Jobs
I told [Bill Gates] I believed every word of what I said but that I should never have said it in public. I wish him the best, I really do. I just think he and Microsoft are a bit narrow. He'd be a broader guy if he had dropped acid once or gone off to an ashram when he was younger.
Steve Jobs
But innovation comes from people meeting up in the hallways or calling each other at 10:30 at night with a new idea, or because they realized something that shoots holes in how we've been thinking about a problem.
Steve Jobs
