Steve Jobs's Best Quotes ... After Steve Jobs resigned as Apple's CEO, The Wall Street Journal ran an article with some of Jobs's most quotable quotes over the past thirty years. Here are a few examples about leadership, communication, and creativity:
On simplicity: "Simple can be harder than complex: You have to work hard to get your thinking clean and make it simple."
On quality: "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 nobody will ever 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 quality has to be carried all the way through."
On focus & self-denial: "It comes from saying no to 1,000 things to make sure we don't get on the wrong track and try to do too much … it's only by saying no that you can concentrate on things that are really important."
