Jobs’ classic quote:

“Work will become an important part of your life. The only way to truly satisfy yourself is to do what you believe is great work. The only way to do a great job is to love what you do. If you haven't found a job that interests you, keep looking. You'll find what you love most. Like any great relationship in the world, your relationship gets better over time, so don’t stop looking for something you love. June, Stanford University graduation ceremony)

"No one wants to die. Even if people dream of going to heaven, no one wants to do it. Death is for each of us. They are all ends, and no one can escape. This is the fact, because death may be the best creation of life. It is the driving force of life change. If the old does not go away, the new will not come. Now you are in your prime, but you will also be in your prime. Wither, gradually grow old, and eventually disappear from the world. Life is full of drama, but that is the truth." (Speech at the Stanford University graduation ceremony in June 2005)

"I think if you do. If you have done something and the results are good, then you should try to do other better things instead of dwelling on the current results for a long time to figure out what to do next.
