I am driven by great work and seeing people do incredible things and having a part in that.

Our message, to people around the country and around the world, is this: Apple is open. Open to everyone, regardless of where they come from, what they look like, how they worship or who they love.

There are times in all of our lives when a reliance on gut or intuition just seems more appropriate - when a particular course of action just feels right.

Apple has a culture of excellence that is, I think, so unique and so special. I'm not going to witness or permit the change of it.

Our competition is different. They're confused. They chased after netbooks. Now they're trying to make PCs into tablets and tablets into PCs. Who knows what they'll do next?

We're very simple people at Apple. We focus on making the world's best products and enriching people's lives.

If I'm working with you for several months on things, if I have a relationship with you, and I decide one day I'm going to sue you, I'm a country boy at the end of the day. I'm going to pick up the phone and tell you I'm going to sue you.
