“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.

They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.”
— Steve Jobs
“You can't connect the dots looking forward you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future.

— Steve Jobs

If you haven't found it yet, keep looking and don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you've found it.”
— Steve Jobs
“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.

Everything else is secondary.”
— Steve Jobs
