“ Steve Jobs:It is hard to think that a $2 billion company with 4,300-plus people couldn't compete with six people in blue jeans. #Dress#Dress

“ Steve Jobs:I wish him the best, I really do. I just think he and Microsoft are a bit narrow. He'd be a broader guy if he had dropped acid once or gone off to an ashram when he was younger. #Family#Family

“ Steve Jobs:The system is that there is no system. That doesn't mean we don't have process. Apple is a very disciplined company, and we have great processes. But that's not what it's about. Process makes you more efficient. But innovation comes from people meeting up in the hallways or calling each other at 10:30 at night with a new idea, or because they realized something that shoots holes in how we've been thinking about a problem. It's ad hoc meetings of six people called by someone who thinks he has figured out the coolest new thing ever and who wants to know what other people think of his idea. And it comes from saying no to 1,000 things to make sure we don't get on the wrong track or try to do too much. We're always thinking about new markets we could enter, but it's only by saying no that you can concentrate on the things that are really important. #Conversation#Conversation

“ Steve Jobs:I think if you do something and it turns out pretty good, then you should go do something else wonderful, not dwell on it for too long. Just figure out what's next. #Love#Love

“ Steve Jobs:What a computer is to me is the most remarkable tool that we have ever come up with. It's the equivalent of a bicycle for our minds. #Computers#Computers
11
“ Steve Jobs:When you're young, you look at television and think, There's a conspiracy. The networks have conspired to dumb us down. But when you get a little older, you realize that's not true. The networks are in business to give people exactly what they want. That's a far more depressing thought. Conspiracy is optimistic! You can shoot the bastards! We can have a revolution! But the networks are really in business to give people what they want. It's the truth. #Conspiracy#Conspiracy

“ Steve Jobs:Do you want to spend the rest of your life selling sugared water or do you want a chance to change the world? #Change#Change

“ Steve Jobs:I've always wanted to own and control the primary technology in everything we do. #Technology#Technology
15
“ 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. #Taste#Taste

“ Steve Jobs:They are shamelessly copying us. #Imitation#Imitation

“ Steve Jobs:We're gambling on our vision, and we would rather do that than make "me too" products. Let some other companies do that. For us, it's always the next dream. #Gambling#Gambling

“ Steve Jobs:We don't believe it's possible to protect digital content... What's new is this amazingly efficient distribution system for stolen property called the Internet — and no one's gonna shut down the Internet. And it only takes one stolen copy to be on the Internet. And the way we expressed it to them is: Pick one lock — open every door. It only takes one person to pick a lock. Worst case: Somebody just takes the analog outputs of their CD player and rerecords it — puts it on the Internet. You'll never stop that. So what you have to do is compete with it. #Internet#Internet

“ Steve Jobs:If, for some reason, we make some big mistake and IBM wins, my personal feeling is that we are going to enter a computer Dark Ages for about twenty years. #Computers#Computers
