More quotes by Steve Jobs
Packaging can be theater, it can create a story
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
Don't just live a life build one.
Steve Jobs
Every once in a while, a revolutionary product comes along that changes everything.
Steve Jobs
Focus and simplicity...once you get there, you can move mountains.
Steve Jobs
Marketing is about values. It's a complicated and noisy world, and we're not going to get a chance to get people to remember much about us. No company is. So we have to be really clear about what we want them to know about us.
Steve Jobs
When we started off we didn't know how to spell software.
Steve Jobs
The most important decisions you make are not the things you do, but the things you decide not to do.
Steve Jobs
A computer is the most incredible tool we've ever seen. It can be a writing tool, a communications center, a supercalculator, a planner, a filer and an artistic instrument all in one, just by being given new instructions, or software, to work from. There are no other tools that have the power and versatility of a computer.
Steve Jobs
You have to have a lot of passion for what you do... because if you don't, any rational person would give up.
Steve Jobs
I'm the only person I know that's lost a quarter of a billion dollars in one year. It's very character-building.
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
My job is not to be easy on people. My job is to take these great people we have and to push them and make them even better.
Steve Jobs
Great art stretches the taste, it doesn't follow tastes.
Steve Jobs
It's the disease of thinking that a having a great idea is really 90% of the work. And if you just tell people, 'here's this great idea,' then of course they can go off and make it happen. The problem with that is that there's a tremendous amount of craftsmanship between a having a great idea and having a great product.
Steve Jobs
All the work I've done in my life will be obsolete by the time I'm fifty.
Steve Jobs
We're not a media company. We don't own media. We don't own music. We don't own films or television. We're not a media company. We're just Apple.
Steve Jobs
How can you get fired from the company you started?
Steve Jobs
We limit how much technology our kids use at home.
Steve Jobs
The engineering is long gone in most PC companies. In the consumer electronics companies, they don't understand the software parts of it. And so you really can't make the products that you can make at Apple anywhere else right now. Apple's the only company that has everything under one roof.
Steve Jobs
