Steve Jobs was one of the most important visionary minds of our time. He was the co-founder and CEO of Apple and the largest shareholder in Pixar. So many of his ideas have permanently shaped the world as we know it. Jobs died on October 5, 2011. A few days later governor of California proclaimed October 16th to be Steve Jobs Day. It is the date that Apple held a memorial service for him.

On Steve Jobs Memorial Day, we share the most interesting quotes of the genius:

Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. 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.

My favorite things in life don’t cost any money. It’s really clear that the most precious resource we all have is time.

Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose.

You can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backward. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future.
