2. “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.”

3. “Your time is limited, don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be
trapped by dogma, which is living the result of other people’s thinking. Don’t
let the noise of other opinions drown your own inner voice. And most
important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition, they
somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is
secondary.”

4. “Quality is much better than quantity. One home run is much
better than two doubles.”

5. “Innovation distinguishes between a leader and a follower.”

6. “Creativity is just connecting things. When you ask creative people how they
did something, they feel a little guilty because they didn’t really do it, they
just saw something. It seemed obvious to them after a while.”

7. “It’s better to be a pirate than to join the navy.”

8. “Stay hungry. Stay foolish.”

9. “If you want to live your life in a creative way, as an artist, you have
to not look back too much. You have to be willing to take whatever
you’ve done and whoever you were and throw them away.”

10. “I think if you do something and it turns out pretty good, then you should go
do something else wonderful, not dwell on it for too long. Just figure out
what’s next.”

11. “We don’t get a chance to do that many things, and every one should be really
excellent. Because this is our life. Life is brief, and then you die, you know?
And we’ve all chosen to do this with our lives. So it better be damn good. It
better be worth it.”
