“I’d learned enough about circuitry in high school electronics to know how to drive a TV and get it to draw – shapes of characters and things.”

Our first computers were born not out of greed or ego, but in the revolutionary spirit of helping common people rise above the most powerful institutions.

Don’t worry that you can’t seem to come up with sure billion dollar winners at first. Just do projects for yourself for fun. You’ll get better and better.

Young children were always so important to me. Adults should treat children with more respect. We should put more monies in our schools. I grew up on that side of the coin.

I really worry about everything going to the cloud.

When you stop and think about it, a smartphone is basically a whistle you can carry.

Imagination is something you do alone.

My whole life had been designing computers I could never build.

I really believe I know why my designs were better than any other human being, but I don’t want to take credit for starting Apple, for turning the world around or anything like that.

Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.

Music is really driving my whole life.

Sundays are for rest & recharging. And my way of doing that is going for a long drive

Being a passionate car enthusiast, I always had my eyes on driving a formula car.
