More quotes by Steve Jobs
I’d like to create an integrated television set that is completely easy to use. It would be seamlessly synced with all of your devices and with iCloud. It will have the simplest user interface you could imagine. I finally cracked it.
Steve Jobs
This is what customers pay us for - to sweat all these details so it's easy and pleasant for them to use our computers. We're supposed to be really good at this. That doesn't mean we don't listen to customers, but it's hard for them to tell you what they want when they've never seen anything remotely like it.
Steve Jobs
Technology alone is not enough.
Steve Jobs
First was the mouse. The second was the click wheel. And now, we're going to bring multi-touch to the market. And each of these revolutionary interfaces has made possible a revolutionary product - the Mac, the iPod and now the iPhone.
Steve Jobs
We hire people who want to make the best things in the world.
Steve Jobs
The hardest thing when you think about focusing. You think focusing is about saying Yes. No. Focusing is about saying No. And when you say No, you piss off people.
Steve Jobs

Steve Jobs

Steve Jobs
If I had never dropped in on that single course in college, the Mac would have never had multiple typefaces or proportionally spaced fonts. And since Windows just copied the Mac, it's likely that no personal computer would have them.
Steve Jobs
It's really hard to design products by focus groups. A lot of times, people don't know what they want until you show it to them.
Steve Jobs
Good PR educates people that's all it is. You can't con people in this business. The products speak for themselves.
Steve Jobs
Simple can be harder than complex. You have to work hard to get your thinking clean to make it simple.
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
You're already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.
Steve Jobs
iMac is next year's computer for $1,299, not last year's computer for $999.
Steve Jobs
Guess who surprised themselves and changed their minds.
Steve Jobs
Never settle for average.
Steve Jobs
Creativity is just connecting things.
Steve Jobs
Innovation means saying 'no' to a thousand things.
Steve Jobs
Focus and simplicity...once you get there, you can move mountains.
Steve Jobs
