Steve Jobs Quotes

I try to get people to see what I have.... When you run a computer company, you have to get people to buy into your dreams Picture Quote #1

The most important decisions you make are not the things you do, but the things you decide not to do Picture Quote #1

If you are working on something exciting that you really care about, you don’t have to be pushed. The vision pulls you Picture Quote #1

Most people never pick up the phone and call. Most people never ask, and that’s what separates the people who do things from the people who just dream about them Picture Quote #1

I think death is the most wonderful invention of life. It purges the system of these old models that are obsolete Picture Quote #1

Start small, think big. Don’t worry about too many things at once. Take a handful of simple things to begin with, and then progress to more complex ones. Think about not just tomorrow, but the future. Put a ding in the universe Picture Quote #1

I know from my own education that if I hadn’t encountered two or three individuals that spent extra time with me, I’m sure I would have been in jail Picture Quote #1

The unions are the worst thing that ever happened to education because it’s not a meritocracy. It turns into a bureaucracy, which is exactly what has happened. The teachers can’t teach and administrators run the place and nobody can be fired. It’s terrible Picture Quote #1

The most important thing is a person. A person who incites your curiosity and feeds your curiosity; and machines cannot do that in the same way that people can Picture Quote #1

The minute I dropped out I could stop taking the required classes that didn’t interest me, and begin dropping in on the ones that looked interesting Picture Quote #1

Of course it was impossible to connect the dots looking forward when I was in college. But it was very, very clear looking backwards 10 years later Picture Quote #1

So when a good idea comes, you know, part of my job is to move it around, just see what different people think, get people talking about it, argue with people about it, get ideas moving among that group of 100 people, get different people together to explore different aspects of it quietly, and, you know – just explore things Picture Quote #1

I found that there were these incredibly great people at doing certain things, and you couldn’t replace one of these people with fifty average people Picture Quote #1

We’re not going to be the first to this party, but we’re going to be the best Picture Quote #1

You’ve got to find what you love. And that is as true for your work as it is for your lovers Picture Quote #1

The problem is I’m older now, I’m 40 years old, and this stuff doesn’t change the world. It really doesn’t Picture Quote #1

There’s a lot of symbolism to your return. Is that going to be enough to reinvigorate the company with a sense of magic? Picture Quote #1

It’s not about pop culture, and it’s not about fooling people, and it’s not about convincing people that they want something they don’t. We figure out what we want. And I think we’re pretty good at having the right discipline to think through whether a lot of other people are going to want it, too. That’s what we get paid to do Picture Quote #1

Everything around you that you call life was made up by people that were no smarter than you and you can change it, you can influence it, you can build your own things that other people can use Picture Quote #1

Expose yourself to the best things humans have done and then try to bring those things into what you are doing Picture Quote #1

I think the artistry is in having an insight into what one sees around them. Generally putting things together in a way no one else has before and finding a way to express that to other people who don’t have that insight Picture Quote #1

All we are is our ideas, or people. That’s what keeps us going to work in the morning, to hang around these great bright people. I’ve always thought that recruiting is the heart and soul of what we do Picture Quote #1

In your life you only get to do so many things and right now we’ve chosen to do this, so let’s make it great Picture Quote #1

I’m not dismissing the value of higher education; I’m simply saying it comes at the expense of experience Picture Quote #1

You’ve got to have a problem that you want to solve; a wrong that you want to right Picture Quote #1

You can’t look at the competition and say you’re going to do it better. You have to look at the competition and say you’re going to do it differently Picture Quote #1

When you ask creative people how they did something, they feel a little guilty because they didn’t really do it, they just saw something Picture Quote #1

And we’ve all chosen to do this with our lives. So it better be damn good. It better be worth it Picture Quote #1

My passion has been to build an enduring company where people were motivated to make great products. Everything else was secondary. Sure, it was great to make a profit, because that was what allowed you to make great products. But the products, not the profits were the motivation Picture Quote #1

The broader one’s understanding of the human experience, the better design we will have Picture Quote #1
