Steve Jobs
Image
If you are working on something exciting that you really care about, you don't have to be pushed. The vision pulls you.
Steve Jobs
Image
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.

Each dream you leave behind is a part of your future that will no longer exist.
Steve Jobs

I am saddened, not by Microsoft's success — I have no problem with their success. They've earned their success, for the most part. I have a problem with the fact that they just make really third-rate products.
