Стив джобс цитаты на английском
Обновлено: 16.05.2024
Английский язык – не самоцель. Английский – это инструмент, помогающий достигать определенных целей. А чем не цель –понять мысль, доносимую великим человеком? Предлагаю вашему вниманию самую известную речь Стива Джобса, обращенную к выпускникам Стэнфорда 2005 года.
Сказать, что речь Стива Джобса мотивирует и заряжает на успех – это не сказать ничего. Мне кажется, что многие люди под впечатлением от услышанного написали свои собственные книги об успехе. И даже в их пересказе мысли, высказанные Стивом Джобсом, продолжают будоражить ум.
Если вы еще не слышали эту речь, обязательно сделайте это прямо сейчас.
Так как наш блог посвящен изучению английского языка, речь представлена в оригинале. Мистер Джобс говорит очень четко и понятно. Если ваши знания английского средние или выше среднего, вы почти всё поймете. Если же нет, советую послушать речь в переводе.
Не буду приводить двойной текст в данной статье (иначе она получится слишком длинной). Но выпишу для вас самые интересные на мой взгляд высказывания.
1. Much of what I stumbled into by following my curiosity and intuition turned out to be priceless later on.
Многое из того, на что я случайно натолкнулся, следуя любопытству и интуиции, в итоге оказалось для меня бесценным.
2. Of course it was impossible to connect the dots looking forward when I was in college. But it was very, very clear looking backwards ten years later.
Конечно, было невозможно соединить ключевые точки моей жизни, глядя в будущее, когда я был в колледже. Но всё стало очень и очень очевидно, когда я оглянулся назад 10 лет спустя.
И еще раз, мы не можем соединить ключевые точки своей жизни наперед; но мы можем всё связать воедино, оглядываясь назад. Нужно просто верить, что когда-то точки соединятся. Всегда нужно во что-то верить – в себя, в судьбу, в жизнь, в карму, хоть во что-то. Меня это никогда не подводило, но изменило всю мою жизнь.
3. But something slowly began to dawn on me — I still loved what I did. I had been rejected, but I was still in love. And so I decided to start over.
(после позорного увольнения из Apple) Но что-то медленно разгоралось во мне – ведь я по прежнему любил то, что делал. Да, меня отвергли, но я всё равно любил. Поэтому я решил начать сначала.
4. The heaviness of being successful was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again, less sure about everything.
Тяжесть успеха сменилась легкостью новичка, который еще не настолько самоуверен.
Я уверен, ничего из случившего бы не произошло, если бы меня не уволили из Apple. Это было ужасное лекарство, но, похоже, пациенту оно было нужно. Иногда жизнь бьет кирпичом по голове. Не теряйте веру.
Найди то, что ты любишь. И это так же справедливо по отношению к работе, как и по отношению к любимым. Работа займет очень большую часть твоей жизни, и единственный способ оставаться всегда довольным – делать то, что по твоему искреннему убеждению является Великим Делом. А единственный известный мне способ делать Великое Дело – это Любить то, что делаешь.
Если ты еще не нашел его, ищи. Не сдавайся. Сердце подскажет, когда ты найдешь свое Дело. И так же как идеальные взаимоотношения, в работе всё будет становиться только лучше с течением лет. Так что ищи, пока не найдешь. Не сдавайся!
Когда мне было 17, я прочитал такую цитату: «Если ты живешь каждый день, будто он для тебя последний, то однажды ты окажешься прав». Эта мысль произвела на меня огромное впечатление.
Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.
Мысль о том, что ты однажды умрешь – это самый лучший из всех известных мне способов, чтобы не попасть в ловушку убеждения, что тебе есть что терять. У тебя и так ничего нет. Так почему бы тогда не следовать своему сердцу.
Время ограничено, поэтому не трать его, живя чужой жизнью.
Не позволяй шуму чужих голосов подавить голос твоего сердца.
And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.
И самое главное – найди в себе смелость следовать своему сердцу и своей интуиции. Они уже каким-то образом знают, кем ты на самом деле хочешь стать. А всё остальное вторично.

2. “I always thought of myself as a Humanities person as a kid, but I liked electronics…Then I read something that one of my heroes, Edwin Land of Polaroid, said about the importance of people who could stand at the intersection of humanities and sciences, and I decided that’s what I wanted to do.” – Steve Jobs by Walter Isaacson
3. “My favorite things in life don’t cost any money. It’s really clear that the most precious resource we all have is time.” –Steve Jobs, Playboy, February, 1985
4. “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 oftentimes arrive at some very elegant and simple solutions. Most people just don’t put in the time or energy to get there. We believe that customers are smart, and want objects which are well thought through.” –Steve Jobs, Newsweek, October 14, 2006
5. “The only way to do great work is to love what you do.” – Steve Jobs

7. “We don’t get a chance to do that many things and everyone should be really excellent. Because this is our life. Life is brief, and then you die, you know? And we’ve all chosen to do this with our lives. So it better be damn good. It better be worth it.” – Fortune, March, 2008
8. “That’s been one of my mantras — focus and simplicity. Simple can be harder than complex; you have to work hard to get your thinking clean to make it simple.” – Steve Jobs
10. “Quality is much better than quantity. One home run is much better than two doubles.” –Steve Jobs, Bloomberg BusinessWeek, February 5, 2006
11. “I think if you do something and it turns out pretty good, then you should go do something else wonderful, not dwell on it for too long. Just figure out what’s next.” – Steve Jobs

15. “When you grow up you tend to get told the world is the way it is and…to live your life inside the world. Try not to bash into the walls too much. Try to have a nice family, have fun, save a little money. That’s a very limited life. Life can be much broader once you discover one simple fact: Everything around you that you call life was made up by people that were no smarter than you and you can change it, you can influence it, you can build your own things that other people can use. Once you learn that, you’ll never be the same again.” –Steve Jobs, Interview with Santa Clara Valley Historical Association, 1994
Best Steve Jobs Quotes from about Innovation
16. “We are inventing the future,” [Jobs told a job applicant]. “Think about surfing on the front edge of a wave. It’s really exhilarating. Now think about dog-paddling at the tail end of that wave. It wouldn’t be anywhere near as much fun. Come down here and make a dent in the universe.” – Steve Jobs by Walter Isaacson
17. “Be a yardstick of quality. Some people aren’t used to an environment where excellence is expected.” – Steve Jobs

This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.” –Steve Jobs, Stanford University Commencement Speech, 2005
19. “Getting fired from Apple was the best thing that could have ever happened to me. The heaviness of being successful was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again. It freed me to enter one of the most creative periods of my life.” –Steve Jobs, Stanford University Commencement Speech, 2005
20. “Innovation distinguishes between a leader and a follower.” – Steve Jobs
21. “I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life and no idea how college was going to help me figure it out. And here I was spending all of the money my parents had saved their entire life. So I decided to drop out and trust that it would all work out okay…
The minute I dropped out I [began] dropping in on the [classes] that looked interesting… I learned about serif and sans serif typefaces, about varying the amount of space between different letter combinations, about what makes great typography great. It was beautiful, historical, artistically subtle in a way that science can’t capture, and I found it fascinating.” – Steve Jobs by Walter Isaacson
22. “My model for business is The Beatles. They were four guys who kept each other’s kind of negative tendencies in check. They balanced each other, and the total was greater than the sum of the parts. That’s how I see business: Great things in business are never done by one person, they’re done by a team of people.” –Steve Jobs, CBS: 60 Minutes, 2008
23. “My self-identity does not revolve around being a businessman, though I recognize that is what I do. I think of myself more as a person who builds neat things. I like building neat things. I like making tools that are useful to people. I like working with very bright people.
I like interacting in the world of ideas, though somehow those ideas have to be tied to some physical reality. One of the things I like the most is dropping a new idea on a bunch of incredibly smart and talented people and then letting them work it out themselves. I like all of that very, very much.” –Steve Jobs, Esquire, December, 1986
24. “Don’t let the noise of other’s’ opinions drown out your own inner voice.” –Steve Jobs, Stanford University Commencement Speech, 2005
25. “When you’re a carpenter making a beautiful chest of drawers, you’re not going to use a piece of plywood on the back, even though it faces the wall and nobody will see it. You’ll know it’s there, so you’re going to use a beautiful piece of wood on the back. For you to sleep well at night, the aesthetic, the quality, has to be carried all the way through.” –Steve Jobs, Playboy, February, 1985
26. “Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle. As with all matters of the heart, you’ll know when you find it.” –Steve Jobs, Stanford University Commencement Speech, 2005
27. “Even if we lose our money, we’ll have a company,” Jobs told Steve Wozniak early on, in the mid-1970s. “For once in our lives, we’ll have a company.” – Steve Jobs by Walter Isaacson
28. “I don’t really care about being right, I just care about success. You’ll find a lot of people that will tell you I had a very strong opinion, and they presented evidence to the contrary and five minutes later I changed my mind. I don’t mind being wrong, and I’ll admit that I’m wrong a lot. It doesn’t really matter to me too much. What matters to me is that we do the right thing.” – Steve Jobs: The Lost Interview, 2012
29. “You think, well, focusing is saying yes. No, focusing is about saying no. Focusing is about saying no. And you’ve got to say no, no, no. When you say no, you piss off people.” – Steve Jobs
30. “Details matter, it’s worth waiting to get it right.” – Steve Jobs
Famous Steve Jobs Quotes about Marketing
32. “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.” – 1Steve Jobs, Wired, February 1996
33. “Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.” – Steve Jobs
34. “I’m as proud of many of the things we haven’t done as the things we have done. Innovation is saying no to a thousand things.” –Steve Jobs, World Wide Developers Conference, May 1997
35. “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.” – Words of Wisdom: Steve Jobs
36. “I’ve always been attracted to the more revolutionary changes. I don’t know why. Because they’re harder. They’re much more stressful emotionally. And you usually go through a period where everybody tells you that you’ve completely failed.” – Steve Jobs
37. “Things don’t have to change the world to be important.” – Steve Jobs
38. “I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life and no idea how college was going to help me figure it out…And here I was spending all of the money my parents had saved their entire life. So I decided to drop out and trust that it would all work out OK. It was pretty scary at the time, but looking back it was one of the best decisions I ever made.” –Steve Jobs, Stanford University Commencement Speech, 2005
Best Steve Jobs Quotes about Tech and Life
39. “Technology is nothing. What’s important is that you have faith in people, that they’re basically good and smart, and if you give them tools, they’ll do wonderful things with them.” – Rolling Stone, June 16, 1994
40. “No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don’t want to die to get there. And yet death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it. And that is as it should be, because death is very likely the single best invention of life.” – Steve Jobs
42. “You can’t just ask customers what they want and then try to give that to them. By the time you get it built, they’ll want something new.” –Steve Jobs, Inc. Magazine, April 1, 1989
43. “Innovation has nothing to do with how many R&D dollars you have. When Apple came up with the Mac, IBM was spending at least 100 times more on R&D. It’s not about money. It’s about the people you have, how you’re led, and how much you get it.” –Steve Jobs, Fortune, November, 1998
45. “You should never start a company with the goal of getting rich. Your goal should be making something you believe in and making a company that will last.” – Steve Jobs by Walter Isaacson
46. “Innovation comes from people meeting up in the hallways or calling each other at 10:30 at night with a new idea, or because they realized something that shoots holes in how we’ve been thinking about a problem. It’s ad hoc meetings of six people called by someone who thinks he has figured out the coolest new thing ever and who wants to know what other people think of his idea.” – Steve Jobs
48. “You’ve got to start with the customer experience and work back toward the technology – not the other way around.” –Steve Jobs, World Wide Developers Conference, May 1997
49. “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. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.” –Steve Jobs, Stanford University Commencement Speech, 2005
50. “Here’s to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently; they’re not fond of rules. 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.

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. You have to trust in something: your gut, destiny, life, karma , whatever. Because believing that the dots will connect down the road will give you the confidence to follow your heart, even when it leads you off the well worn path.
