Steve Jobs living for today

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.

There is no reason not to follow your heart Stanford Graduate Commencement address

Television Conspiracy- Steve Jobs

When you're young, you look at television and think, There's a conspiracy. The networks have conspired to dumb us down. But when you get a little older, you realize that's not true.

But the networks are really in business to give people what they want. It's the truth. Wired (February 1996)
