Steve was the first technology giant to become a pop-cultural icon. He abandoned the business suit for a black turtleneck and jeans. And he gave presentations that mesmerized his audience. He convinced us of the impossible and then he made it come true. He was a miracle worker and a visionary that changed our world.
Steve Jobs embodied all the slogans that appeared at Apple. “Think Different” and “Stay hungry. Stay foolish,” became words to live by. Because no one can deny that he lived by them.
“That’s the most important thing, is to shake off this erroneous notion that life is there and you’re just gonna live in it. Versus embrace it, change it, improve it, make your mark upon it. I think that’s very important and however, you learn that, once you learn it, you’ll want to change life and make it better because it’s kinda messed up in a lot of ways. Once you learn that, you’ll never be the same again.” Steve Jobs, 1994
