Steve Jobs frasi celebri
Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out 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.
And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on. So keep looking until you find it. Don't settle. [...] Stay hungry. Stay foolish. <br class="br">Origine: La questione è controversa: il termine "foolish" viene spesso tradotto con "folle". Questa traduzione è imprecisa, poiché per esprimere questo termine in inglese sono utilizzate le parole "insane" o "crazy". La traduzione di foolish è "sciocco", "ingenuo", quando riferito a persona.

I am honored to be with you today at your commencement from one of the finest universities in the world. I never graduated from college.
