Apple Quotes

• “It takes a lot of hard work to make something simple.” ~ Steve Jobs
• Too often people think about intuition as the same as relying on luck or faith. At least as I see it, nothing could be further from the truth. Intuition can tell you, of the doors that are open to you, which one you should walk through. But intuition cannot prepare you for what’s on the other side of that door.” ~Tim Cook
• “Sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick. Don’t lose faith.” ~ Steve Jobs
• We have to make sure, at Apple, that we stay true to focus, laser focus – we know we can only do great things a few times, only on a few products.” ~Tim Cook
• “I had a TV set and a typewriter and that made me think a computer should be laid out like a typewriter with a video screen.” ~Steve Wozniak, co-founder Apple Inc.
• When you’re a carpenter making a beautiful chest of drawers, you’re not going to use a piece of plywood on the back, even though it faces the wall and nobody will see it. You’ll know it’s there, so you’re going to use a beautiful piece of wood on the back. For you to sleep well at night, the aesthetic, the quality, has to be carried all the way through.” ~Steve Jobs
• “Creativity and innovation are something you can’t flowchart out.” ~ Tim Cook, CEO Apple.
• “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. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About 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 people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.” ~Steve Jobs
