Steve [Jobs] and I spent months getting to know each other before I joined Apple. He had no exposure to marketing other than what he picked up on his own. This is sort of typical of Steve. When he knows something is going to be important, he tries to absorb as much as he possibly can.

Health care missed the PC and Internet revolutions, but it can't afford to miss the cloud and mobile revolution.

Nothing will divide this nation more than ignorance, and nothing can bring us together better than an educated population.

People are going to be most creative and productive when they're doing something they're really interested in.

What makes Steve [Jobs'] methodology different from everyone else's is that he always believed the most important decisions you make are not the things you do, but the things you decide not to do. He's a minimalist.

I have found that I always learn more from my mistakes than from my successes. If you aren't making some mistakes, you aren't taking enough chances.

People who take risks are the people you'll lose against.
