“To go forward you have to leave something behind.”

I sat in a garage and invented the future.

It’s better to be a pirate than to join the Navy.

The mark of an innovative company is not only that it comes up with new ideas first, but also that it knows how to leapfrog when it finds itself behind.

You have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future.

None of us are as creative as all of us.

Without passion, any rational person would give up!

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.

If you keep your eye on the profit, you’re going to skimp on the product. But if you focus on making really great products, then the profits will follow.

Innovation distinguishes between a leader and a follower.

People don’t know what they want until you show it to them. That’s why I never rely on marketing research. Our task is to read things that are not yet on the page.

I don’t think of my life as a career. I do stuff. I respond to stuff. That’s not a career – it’s a life!

I’m as proud of what we don’t do as I am of what we do.

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.

Stay hungry, stay foolish.

Creativity comes from spontaneous meetings, from random discussions.

We have always been shameless about stealing great ideas.

Nothing is more beautiful than two broken hearts healing each other.

The silence was broken with the music of your pain, but with every note i could see a part of you healing.

You grow more with the pain than with pleasure.

Hurting people back won’t heal your wounds – forgiveness does.

Flowers only wither to bloom again. So shall you break, only to be whole again.

The wars you create, will be fought by your children, for the people already dead.

Anxiety is so comfortable that people are more willing to live with it rather than willing to heal from it.

Two damaged people trying to heal each other is love.
