Steve Jobs: His Own Words and WisdomRemarkable Quotations by Steve JobsFounder and CEO of AppleSelected by the Editors of the Cupertino Silicon Valley PressEXCERPTS"Here's to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes… the ones who see things differently — they're not fond of rules… You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can't do is ignore them because they change things… they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do." "Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything -- all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure -- these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart. ... Stay hungry. Stay foolish."DESCRIPTIONA remarkable collection of quotations by one of the most influential visionaries of our time. Given up for adoption by his biological parents, and never having graduated from university, Steve Jobs subsequently became the most admired businessperson of his generation. A man who invented or revolutionized five major global industries (personal computer, music, film, mobile phone, and tablet computers), Steve Jobs was a brilliant, enigmatic, and flawed individual, whose personal contradictions were often overshadowed by his public persona.For the first time, his own words have been collected and edited by the Cupertino Silicon Valley Press in a special exclusive Kindle Edition.TABLE OF CONTENTSABILITY TO CHANGEACCEPTANCEADJUSTING WITH DIFFICULTIESADOBE FLASH MISTAKEANDROIDANTI-PORN APPSAPPLE INNOVATIONAPPLE LEGACYAPPLE SUPREMACYAPPLE'S BUSINESS STRATEGIESAPPLE'S DOWNFALLAPPRECIATIONAPPRECIATION OF LIFEBEING THE BESTBEING FRANKBEING UBIQUITOUSBEST FOR APPLEBETTER EXPERIENCEBORROWING IDEASBUILDING THE BESTBUSINESS IDEASBUSINESS SUCCESS IDEASBUSINESS TRANSITIONSBUYING MUSICCALLIGRAPHYCHALLENGE TO MICROSOFTCHANGECOMMUNICATING WITH FEELINGCOMPETITIONCOMPUTER AS SERVANT, GUIDE, AND AGENTCOMPUTER EFFICIENCYCOMPUTER LITERACYCOMPUTERSCONFIDENCE IN APPLE AS A COMPANYCONSUMERS AS THE USERCONTENTMENT AND ADVENTURECOOPERATIONCOURAGECREATING SOFTWARECREATIVITYCUSTOMER SATISFACTIONDEATHDESIGNING PRODUCTSDESKTOP METAPHORDETERMINATIONDISCIPLINEDISNEY'S SEQUELSDOING GREAT WORKDOING SOMETHING INSANELY GREATDROPPING OUTEDUCATIONEFFICIENCY THROUGH PROCESSEMPLOYMENTENCOURAGEMENTENTHUSIASMEXCELLENCEEXPOSUREFAITH IN PEOPLEFAITHFAMILY RELATIONSHIPFEDEX PACKAGE-TRACKING SYSTEMFOCUSFOLLOWING YOUR INSTINCTSFRIENDSHIPFUTURE PRODUCTSGETTING OLDGLOBAL ISSUESGOOD CONTENTGOOGLE RIVALRYHARD WORKHARDWARE AND SOFTWAREHONESTYHOPEHUMILITYIMACIMPORTANCE OF MUSICINFORMATION REVOLUTIONINNOVATIONINTEGRATIONINTERESTING TELEPHONESINTERNET'S SUPREMACYIPHONE 4 "ANTENNAGATE" CONFERENCE QUOTESIPHONE ACHIEVEMENTIPOD AS SOFTWAREIPOD'S GREATNESSITUNES CREATION RATIONALEKEEPING PRIORITIESLESSONS FROM EXPERIENCELESSONS FROM PIXARLIFE AFTER THE 60'SLIVING WELLLOVE LIFELOVE OF WORKMACINTOSH BEING USER-FRIENDLYMACINTOSH SUPREMACYMACINTOSH WORKFORCEMAKING CALLSMAKING MISTAKESMAN'S BRILLIANCEMARKETINGMERGING OF PC & TVMICROSOFT RIVALRYMOTIVATIONMOVING ONMULTI-TOUCH TECHNOLOGYMUSIC INDUSTRYMUSIC SERVICESMUSICON ADOPTIONMYSTERY OF LIFEON APPLE'S COMEBACKON APPLICATIONSON HIRING PEOPLEON MICROSOFTON NETBOOKSON OBJECTSON TECHNOLOGYON WEBOBJECTSOPPORTUNITYOPTIMISMOS AND HARDWARE COMBINATIONOUTDATED TECHNOLOGYPATRIOTISMPERSEVERANCEAnd Much More!
