Steve Jobs, 1955 – 2011

I hope the Syrians can learn a little from Steve. He was one of them and he never limited himself with hate written by dead people. (Wired) At a 2005 commencement address at Stanford University, Jobs shared the philosophy that drove him. “Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life,” Jobs said. “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.”
