My job is to make the whole executive team good enough to be successors, so that's what I try to do.
Steve Jobs
One way to drive fear out of a relationship is to realize that your partner's values are the same as yours, that what you care about is exactly what they care about. In my opinion, that drives fear out and makes for a great partnership, whether it's a corporate partnership or a marriage.
Steve Jobs

Steve Jobs
Sometimes when you innovate, you make mistakes. It is best to admit them quickly, and get on with improving your other innovations.
Steve Jobs
I naively chose a college that was almost as expensive as Stanford, and all of my working-class parents savings were being spent on my college tuition. After six months I couldn't see the value in it. I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life and no idea how college was going to help me figure it out.
Steve Jobs

Steve Jobs
Every once in a while a revolutionary product comes along that changes everything. It's very fortunate if you can work on just one of these in your career. ... Apple's been very fortunate in that it's introduced a few of these.
Steve Jobs
There are downsides to everything there are unintended consequences to everything.
Steve Jobs
We think Android is very, very fragmented, and becoming more fragmented by the day. And as you know, Apple strives for the integrated model so that the user isn't forced to be the systems integrator.
Steve Jobs
Apple is the only company in the world that has all of that under one roof. We can invent a complete a solution that works - and take responsibility for it.
Steve Jobs
Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice.
