I absolutely do not need a salary or a job, that's the last thing I need.

Wherever smart people work, doors are unlocked.

When you're designing and inventing the way I did, every minute of your life is put - every neuron in your brain into trying to think about the little code and how you can maybe have one less line of code and a little bit more straightforward from the beginning to the answer. And you don't have time to think about companies and products and how would I build this. So Steve Jobs and I were a very necessary pair.

If we build these devices to take care of everything for us, eventually they'll think faster than us and they'll get rid of the slow humans to run companies more efficiently.

I just was non-political and didn't see myself as a person who could push people around, make their decision, you know, and tell them how lousy their work was.

Creative things have to sell to get acknowledged as such.

The best things that capture your imagination are ones you hadn't thought of before and that aren't talked about in the news all the time.
