More quotes by Tim Cook
Most business models have focused on self interest instead of user experience. Those are the kinds of problems we solve to solve.
Tim Cook
To whom much is given, much is expected. I do believe this. It's embedded in me.
Tim Cook
We pave the sunlit path toward justice together, brick by brick. This is my brick.
Tim Cook
Since these early days, I have seen and have experienced many types of discrimination and all of them were rooted in the fear of people that were different than the majority.
Tim Cook
Gaming has kind of evolved a bit. More people play on portable devices. Where we might go in the future, we'll see. Customers love games. I'm not interested in being in the console business in what is thought of as traditional gaming. But Apple is a big player today and things in the future will only make that bigger.
Tim Cook
When I go into my living room and turn on the TV, I feel like I have gone backwards in time by 20 to 30 years. It's an area of intense interest. I can't say more than that.
Tim Cook
I don't think Apple has to own a content business.
Tim Cook
Anything can change, because the smartphone revolution is still in the early stages.
Tim Cook
When I think of civil liberties I think of the founding principles of the country. The freedoms that are in the First Amendment. But also the fundamental right to privacy.
Tim Cook
I just want to build great products.
Tim Cook
I think anything can be forced to converge. The problem is that products are about tradeoffs, and you begin to make tradeoffs to the point where what you have left at the end of the day doesn't please anyone. You can converge a toaster and a refrigerator, but those things are probably not going to be pleasing to the user.
Tim Cook
No matter what you do next, the world needs your energy, your passion, your impatience for progress. Don't shrink from risk. And tune out those critics and cynics. History rarely yields to one person, but think, and never forget, what happens when it does. That can be you. That should be you. That must be you.
Tim Cook
A few years ago, users of Internet services began to realize that when an online service is free, you're not the customer. You're the product.
Tim Cook
There's a lot of health information available on your smart phone. There's financial information. There's your conversations, there's business secrets. There's an enormous long list of things that there's probably more information about you on here than exists in your home, right. Which makes it a lot more valuable to all the bad guys out there.
Tim Cook
In my view the tablet and the PC are different. You can do things with the tablet if you are not encumbered by the legacy of the PC.
Tim Cook
You are more powerful than you think.
Tim Cook
Discrimination, in all its forms, is bad for business.
Tim Cook
The government should always be the one defending civil liberties.
Tim Cook
I believe that if you took privacy and you said, I'm willing to give up all of my privacy to be secure. So you weighted it as a zero. My own view is that encryption is a much better, much better world. And I'm not the only person that thinks that.
Tim Cook
With hacking getting more and more sophisticated, the hacking community has gone from the hobbyist in the basement to huge sophisticated companies that are essentially doing this, or groups of people or foreign agents inside and outside the United States.
