- It's better to be a Pirate than join the Navy ——Steve Jobs 
- Steve Jobs - International Design Conference at Aspen in 1983 - FULL VERSION https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2rqwi63Q1Gs&t=1s 
 “当下工业设计的潮流就是索尼的那种高科技感,也就是金属灰色,要么就涂成黑色,加一些怪异的设计。”
 “这么做很容易,但不够好。"
 “我们会把产品做得光亮又纯净,能展现高科技感,而不是一味使用黑色、黑色、黑色,满是沉重的工业感。我们的设计思想就是:极致的简约,我们追求的是能让产品达到在现代艺术博物馆展出的品质。我们管理公司、设计产品、广告宣传的理念就是一句话:让我们做得简单一点,真正的简单。”
- “我一直都认为佛教一一尤其是日本的佛教禅宗一一在审美上是超群的。” 
 “我见过的最美的设计,就是京都地区的花园,这一文化的产物深深打动了我,而它们都直接源自佛教禅宗。“
- 公元200多年前的秦朝,极端严苛的高品质,武器必须刻上工匠的名字。 
- “无聊的解药是好奇心,而好奇心却无药可解” 
 Dorothy Parker — 'The cure to boredom is curiosity. There is no cure for curiosity.'

 这个人的教育理念,或许值得学习
- Best quote: "Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark, in the hopeless swamps of the not-quite, the not-yet, and the not-at-all. Do not let the hero in your soul perish in lonely frustration for the life you deserved and have never been able to reach. The world you desire can be won. It exists ... it is real ... it is possible ... it's yours." 
- Palo Alto is like Florence in the Renaissance. 
- Jim Clark: Yeah, I don’t get excited about the virtual reality stuff, the car driving and robotics and stuff like that. It’s just going to happen. The parts that really get my juices going are the human-computer interface, through the nervous system, and biology transformation. If I was a young man just getting a PhD, I would definitely do biology, because I think that’s where it’s going. A biologist armed with all this knowledge of computer science and technology can make a huge impact on humanity. 
- Key to creativity is the ability to make unanticipated connections.

- 电动汽车的最大缺点是,大部分能量用来移动电池,而不是移动乘客。 
 人类的体重并不重(大约70公斤左右),特斯拉 Y 型汽车的电池重量是770公斤。所以,运送电池的耗能是运送乘客的10倍。

Interview at the All Things Digital D5 Conference, Steve and Bill Gates spoke with journalists Kara Swisher and Walt Mossberg onstage in May 2007.
Kara Swisher:  The first question I was interested in asking is what you think each has contributed to the computer and technology industry— starting with you, Steve, for Bill, and vice versa. Steve Jobs:   Well, Bill built the first software company in the industry. And  I think he built the first software company before anybody really in our  industry knew what a software company was, except for these guys. And  that was huge. That was really huge. And the business model that they  ended up pursuing turned out to be the one that worked really well for  the industry. I think the biggest thing was, Bill was really focused on  software before almost anybody else had a clue that it was really the software that— KS:  Was important? SJ:   That’s what I see. I mean, a lot of other things you could say, but  that’s the high-order bit. And I think building a company’s really hard,  and it requires your greatest persuasive abilities to hire the best ...
