Finally IdrisNine is BACK! RIP Steve Jobs February 24, 1955 – October 5, 2011

Hello All! I took some time off from blogging but I'm back. Unfortunately back in time to express my heartfelt condolences to the Jobs family. Yesterday one of America's top minds passed away. Steve Jobs you will be missed. You were a man ahead of your time and you knew what we all wanted before we knew we wanted it. So let him speak for himself.

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

-- Steve Jobs, 1985

The heaviness of being successful was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again, less sure about everything. It freed me to enter one of the most creative periods of my life.

-- Steve Jobs, 2005

There are downsides to everything; there are unintended consequences to everything. The most corrosive piece of technology that I've ever seen is called television - but then, again, television, at its best, is magnificent.

-- Steve Jobs, 2003

A lot of times, people don't know what they want until you show it to them.

-- Steve Jobs, 1998

When you first start off trying to solve a problem, the first solutions you come up with are very complex, and most people stop there. But if you keep going, and live with the problem and peel more layers of the onion off, you can often times arrive at some very elegant and simple solutions.

-- Steve Jobs, 2006

Creativity is just connecting things. When you ask creative people how they did something, they feel a little guilty because they didn't really do it, they just saw something. It seemed obvious to them after a while.

-- Steve Jobs

We're just enthusiastic about what we do.

-- Steve Jobs, 1985

I'm sorry, it's true. Having children really changes your view on these things. We're born, we live for a brief instant, and we die. It's been happening for a long time.

-- Steve Jobs, 1993
