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.

More quotes by Steve Jobs
I think the Macintosh was created by a group of people who felt that ah there wasn't a strict vision between sort of science and art.
Steve Jobs
We made the buttons on the screen look so good you'll want to lick them.
Steve Jobs
It's not the tools that you have faith in - tools are just tools. They work, or they don't work. It's people you have faith in or not. Yeah, sure, I'm still optimistic I mean, I get pessimistic sometimes but not for long.
Steve Jobs
I sat in a garage and invented the future.
Steve Jobs
Our job is to read things that are not yet on the page.
Steve Jobs
My job is to make the whole executive team good enough to be successors, so that's what I try to do.
Steve Jobs
A-plus players like to work together and they don't like it if you tolerate B work.
Steve Jobs
Innovation means saying 'no' to a thousand things.
Steve Jobs
I wish developing great products was as easy as writing a check. If that was the case, Microsoft would have great products.
Steve Jobs
I thought deeply about this. I ended up concluding that the worst thing that could possibly happen as we get big and as we get a little more influence in the world is if we change our core values and start letting it slide, I can't do that. I'd rather quit.
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
Don't settle, as with all matters of the heart you'll know when you find it
Steve Jobs
We're just enthusiastic about what we do.
Steve Jobs
Make it like a sunflower.
Steve Jobs
I would rather gamble on our vision than make a 'me, too' product.
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
It takes these very simple-minded instructions - 'Go fetch a number, add it to this number, put the result there, perceive if it's greater than this other number' - but executes them at a rate of, let's say, 1,000,000 per second. At 1,000,000 per second, the results appear to be magic.
Steve Jobs
The only problem with Microsoft is they just have no taste. They have absolutely no taste. And I don't mean that in a small way, I mean that in a big way, in the sense that they don't think of original ideas, and they don't bring much culture into their products.
Steve Jobs
Apple's goal isn't to make money. Our goal is to design and develop and bring to market good products... We trust as a consequence of that, people will like them, and as another consequence, we'll make some money. But we're really clear about what our goals are.
Steve Jobs
Your customers don't care about you. They don't care about your product or service. They care about themselves, their dreams, their goals. Now, they will care much more if you help them reach their goals, and to do that, you must understand their goals, as well as their needs and deepest desires.
Steve Jobs
