Steve Jobs Quotes

On Business:

“Being the richest man in the cemetery doesn’t matter to me … Going to bed at night saying we’ve done something wonderful… that’s what matters to me.”

On Life:

“Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle. As with all matters of the heart, you’ll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on. So keep looking until you find it. Don’t settle.” 


On Education:


“It gave a tremendous level of self-confidence, that through exploration and learning one could understand seemingly very complex things in one’s environment.”
Steve Jobs explains the rules for success:

You need a lot of passion for what you're doing because its so hard. Without passion, any rational person would give up.

So if youre not having fun doing it, if you dont absolutely love it, youre going to give up.

And thats what happens to most people, actually.

If you look at the ones that ended up being successful in the eyes of society, often times its the ones who love what they do, so they could persevere when it got really tough.

And the ones that didnt love it, quit. Because theyre sane, right?

Who would put up with this stuff if you dont love it?

So its a lot of hard work and its a lot of worrying constantly.

If you dont love it, youre going to fail.
