My philosophy is that everything starts with a great product.

None of us are as creative as all of us.

Our task is to read things that are not yet on the page.

Quality is more important than quantity. One home run is much better than two doubles.

Recruiting is hard. It’s just finding the needles in the haystack. You can’t know enough in a one-hour interview.

Steve Jobs

Remembering that I’ll be dead soon is the most important tool I’ve ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything – all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure – these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important.

Steve Jobs

Shake off this erroneous notion that life is there and you’re just gonna live in it, versus embrace it, change it, improve it, make your mark upon it.

Steve Jobs

Somewhere between the janitor and the CEO, reasons stop mattering.

Steve Jobs

That’s been one of my mantras – focus and simplicity. Simple can be harder than complex: You have to work hard to get your thinking clean to make it simple. But it’s worth it in the end because once you get there, you can move mountains.

Steve Jobs

That’s my job – to make sure everything is great.
