    "[T]here may be no greater tribute to Steve’s success than the fact that much of the world learned of his passing on a device he invented."

    Here’s to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in square holes. The ones who see things differently.

    His legacy wasn't any specific product. It's Apple. That's a lot of pressure. We have to rise to it and make all his work worth it.

    It's like something landed in Cupertino and sucked all the happiness out of the world.
