Why doesn't Apple stop for a year and make medical devices? When people talk about technology that's where I start to get a little hot under the collar because I know that it's the key to solving some of the world's biggest problems. Having a faster thinner telephone is not one of the world's biggest problems.

Each year has been so robust with problems and successes and learning experiences and human experienes that a year is a lifetime at Apple. So this has been ten lifetimes.

Millions saw the apple fall but Newton was the one who asked why.

The apple cannot be stuck back on the Tree of Knowledge once we begin to see we are doomed and challenged to seek the strength to see more not less.

Bottom line is I didn't return to Apple to make a fortune. I've been very lucky in my life and already have one. When I was 25 my net worth was $100 million or so. I decided then that I wasn't going to let it ruin my life. There's no way you could ever spend it all and I don't view wealth as something that validates my intelligence.

Even if I knew that tomorrow the world would go to pieces I would still plant my apple tree.

Love doesn't grow on trees like apples in Eden - it's something you have to make. And you must use your imagination too.

My favorite fruit is grapes. Because with grapes you always get another chance. 'Cause you know if you have a crappy apple or a peach you're stuck with that crappy piece of fruit. But if you have a crappy grape no problem - just move on to the next. 'Grapes: The Fruit of Hope.'

I'll always stay connected with Apple. I hope that throughout my life I'll sort of have the thread of my life and the thread of Apple weave in and out of each other like a tapestry. There may be a few years when I'm not there but I'll always come back.

I feel like I'm part of history being made. I leave Apple board meetings thinking 'I've got to do a better job.'

Woz is living his own life now. He hasn't been around Apple for about five years. But what he did will go down in history.

It is remarkable how closely the history of the apple tree is connected with that of man.

Since 1994 lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have considered it politically risky to offer a plan to fix America's broken health care system. The American public though has paid the price for this silence as health care costs skyrocketed millions went uninsured and millions more grappled with financial insecurity and hardship.

One mustn't ask apple trees for oranges France for sun women for love life for happiness.

Did perpetual happiness in the Garden of Eden maybe get so boring that eating the apple was justified?

The system is that there is no system. That doesn't mean we don't have process. Apple is a very disciplined company and we have great processes. But that's not what it's about. Process makes you more efficient.

Anyone can count the seeds in an apple but only God can count the number of apples in a seed.

We are at the very beginning of time for the human race. It is not unreasonable that we grapple with problems. But there are tens of thousands of years in the future. Our responsibility is to do what we can learn what we can improve the solutions and pass them on.

It's funny in a way the actor is a writer. It's not like the two things are so separate as to be like apples and oranges. The writer and the actor are one.

I think the water dictates how food will taste in a country. In England the apples taste unlike apples grown in any other place. England is an island there's a lot of salt in the air and in the water. I think that has something to do with it.

Ever since Eve started it all by offering Adam the apple woman's punishment has been to supply a man with food then suffer the consequences when it disagrees with him.

Writers now are putting total faith in designers at Apple and Amazon. It's almost like a race-car driver having no input into how cars are designed.

As American as an apple is and as American as baseball is they don't go together. You can't be chewing an apple at a baseball game. You've got to let go of the diet that day.

If you were the first person ever to design an application for the iPhone and you patented it you would be very very better off than we are right now you know? But you've got to be the first one to do it. So I figured that Led Zeppelin or the Stones were going to do it unless we just got on to it. So I got cracking with the guys from Apple.
