When Steve Jobs was looking for a CEO for Apple, he wanted John Sculley, former Pepsi CEO, to join the company. This was the famous line Steve told John which eventually made him join the company.

“Do you want to sell sugar water for the rest of your life, or do you want to come with me and change the world?”

Apple’s 1997 Think Different campaign.
“Here’s to the crazy ones, the rebels, the troublemakers, the ones who see things differently. 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.”

Commencement speech at Stanford University.

“Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life.”

“Stay hungry, Stay foolish”

“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. Don’t settle.”

Apple Worldwide Developers’ Conference, 1997
“People think focus means saying yes to the thing you’ve got to focus on. But that’s not what it means at all. It means saying no to the hundred other good ideas that there are. You have to pick carefully. I’m actually as proud of the things we haven’t done as the things I have done. Innovation is saying no to 1,000 things.”

Steve Jobs @ D5 Conference
“Because you can’t look back and say, well, gosh, you know, I wish I hadn’t have gotten fired, I wish I was there, I wish this, I wish that. It doesn’t matter. And so let’s go invent tomorrow rather than worrying about what happened yesterday.”
