    I have a quote wall in my room and one of them says "Do great work, don't settle and remember you will die soon" which is from that talk!

    He is a creative genius and one of the few people who changed the world. The way we communicate, interact, think and creative.
    He will be missed!

    All my health and fitness goals are much easier to achieve because of my iPhone. From the great MFP app, having my HRM tracked through my phone, blogging in real time as I walk half marathons, to the all the great music that keeps me motivated during my workouts...I'm very grateful to Steve and Apple. We'll never forget you, Steve.

    Man, WHAT a legacy! My life would be so different if not for Steve and Woz and ... yeah, I'm sayin' it ... Bill. SO much of what I do is on computer. To call the guy a visionary just isn't quite enough.

    Steve was a bright light ... the light lives on.

    Rest in peace, Steve! Your legacy will live on for a very long time. What a brilliant man! So sad that his contributions to the world couldn't be applied toward finding a cure for what took his life at such a young age! He certainly will be missed by many.:flowerforyou:

    "Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The trouble-makers. The round peg in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules, and they have no respect for the status-quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify, or vilify them. But the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do." Apple

    RIP Steve Jobs!!!!!

    This captures the essence of what I found so motivating and intriguing about the man.

    You changed our world, Steve. May you thrive in your new one.

    Never a fan of his phones or his computers, but he certainly revolutionized the world and shaped it to what it is today. His innovations and progress influences us daily, and his genius will be greatly missed

    He was an absolute legend and I was very sad to hear that he passed away in the early hours of the morning after a battle with Cancer.
    Its just weird looking at my Mac and thinking 'he invented that like if it wasn't for him I probably wouldn't be typing this message to you guys right now'
    He was only 56, so young and he had so much to live for but already in those 56 years he has changed the world and the way we view technology forever.
    Its sad that we've lost such an inventive,creative and all round brilliant mind
    May he Rest In Peace, my thoughts go out to his family and close friends at this difficult time.
