Steve Jobs: Whoever said the customer is always right was, I promise you, a customer.
John Sculley: Don't play stupid, you can't pull it off.
Steve Jobs: If you're here about your legacy, you need to form a line behind Wozniak.
Steve Wozniak: It's not binary. You can be decent and gifted at the same time.
Steve Jobs: He dropped out of a better school than I dropped out of.
Steve Jobs: The two most significant events of the twentieth century: the Allies win the war, and this.
John Sculley: Why do people like you who were adopted feel like they were rejected instead of selected?
Steve Jobs: I don't want people to dislike me. I'm indifferent to whether they dislike me.
Steve Wozniak: We will know soon enough if you are Leonardo da Vinci or just think you are.
Steve Jobs: The musicians play their instruments. I play the orchestra.
Steve Jobs: If a fire causes a stampede to the unmarked exits, it'll have been well worth it for those who survive.
Steve Jobs: They won't know what they're looking at or why they like it but they'll know they want it.
Lisa Brennan: My mother may be a troubled woman, but what's your excuse? That's why I'm not impressed with your story, dad.
Steve Jobs: Voicing an objection would've been a step in the right direction.
Steve Jobs: Everyone, everyone, everyone. Everyone is waiting for the Mac.
Steve Jobs: Who are you hiding from, me or your mom?
Steve Jobs: Whoever said the customer is always right was, I promise you, a customer.
Andy Hertzfeld: We're not a pit crew at Daytona. This can't be fixed in seconds. Steve Jobs: You didn't have seconds, you had three weeks. The universe was created in a third of that time. Andy Hertzfeld: Well, someday you'll have to tell us how you did it.
Steve Wozniak: I was angry. You were saying things about the Apple II, and the way you were treating the team... Steve Jobs: Woz, you get a free pass for life. I gotta get back on stage; we got like, two minutes of rehearsal time left. Steve Wozniak: Do you understand how condescending that just was? Maybe you don't... Steve Jobs: I don't wanna see you get dragged off... Steve Wozniak: I get a free pass for life from you? You give out the passes? You give them to me? Steve Jobs: You're gonna have a stroke, little buddy. Steve Wozniak: What did you do? What did you do? Why has Lisa not heard of me? Steve Jobs: How many fourth graders have heard of you? Steve Wozniak: You can't write code... you're not an engineer... you're not a designer... you can't put a hammer to a nail. I built the circuit board. The graphical interface was stolen from Xerox Parc. Jef Raskin was the leader of the Mac team before you threw him off his own project! Someone else designed the box! So how come ten times in a day, I read Steve Jobs is a genius? What do you do? Steve Jobs: I play the orchestra, and you're a good musician. You sit right there and you're the best in your row. Steve Wozniak: I came here to clear the air. Do you know why I came here? Steve Jobs: Didn't you just answer that? Steve Wozniak: I came here 'cause you're gonna get killed. Your computer's gonna fail. You got a college and university advisory board telling you they need a powerful work station for two to three thousand. You priced NeXT at sixty-five hundred, and that doesn't include the optional three thousand dollar hardrive which people will discover isn't optional, because the optical disk is too weak to do anything, and the twenty-five hundred dollar laser printer brings the total to twelve thousand dollars, and in the entire world you are the only person that cares that it's housed in a perfect cube. You're gonna get killed. And I came here to stand next to you while that happens 'cause that's what friends do... that's what men do. I don't need your pass. We go back, so don't talk to me like I'm other people. I'm the only one that knows that this guy here is someone you invented. I'm standing by you because that perfect cube - that does nothing - is about to be the single biggest failure in the history of personal computing. Steve Jobs: Tell me something else I don't know.
Steve Wozniak: What do you do? You're not an engineer. You're not a designer. You can't put a hammer to a nail. I built the circuit board! The graphical interface was stolen! So how come ten times in a day I read Steve Jobs is a genius? What do you do? Steve Jobs: Musicians play their instruments. I play the orchestra.
John Sculley: You're gonna end me, aren't you? Steve Jobs: You're being ridiculous. I'm gonna sit center court and watch you do it yourself.
Steve Jobs: I'm gonna put music in your pocket. Lisa Brennan: What? Steve Jobs: A hundred songs. A thousand songs. Five hundred songs. Somewhere between five hundred and a thousand songs. Right in your pocket. Because I can't stand looking at that inexplicable Walkman anymore. You're carrying around a brick playing a cassette tape. We're not savages - so I'm gonna put a thousand songs in your pocket. Lisa Brennan: You can do that? Steve Jobs: Mm-hm. You wanna watch from backstage?
Steve Jobs: The exit signs have to be off or we're not gonna get a full blackout. Andrea Cunningham: We've spoken to the building manager and the fire marshal. Steve Jobs: And? Andrea Cunningham: They're absolutely no way they're letting us turn the exit signs off. Steve Jobs: I'll pay whatever the fine is. Andrea Cunningham: The fine is they're gonna come in and tell everyone to leave. Steve Jobs: You explained to the fire marshal that we're in here changing the world. Andrea Cunningham: Well... Steve Jobs: Did you? Andrea Cunningham: Yes, but unless we can also change the properties of fire, he doesn't care. Joanna Hoffman: Steve... Steve Jobs: If a fire causes a stampede to the unmarked exits, it will have been well worth it for those who survive. For those who don't, less so, but still pretty good. Andrea Cunningham: Listen... Steve Jobs: I need it to go black, real black. Get rid of the exit signs, and don't let me know how you did it.
Steve Jobs: What is your problem? Joanna Hoffman: I don't know, but I'm sure it can be traced back to you.
Steve Wozniak: This whole place was built by the Apple II... you were built by the Apple II! Steve Jobs: As a matter of fact I was destroyed by the Apple II and its open systems so that hackers and hobbyists could build ham radios or something! And then it nearly destroyed Apple when you spent all your money on it and developed a grand total of no new products. Steve Wozniak: The Newton... Steve Jobs: The little box of garbage. You guys came up with the Newton, it's like you want people to know that. This is a product launch not a luncheon, and the last thing I want to do is connect the iMac to the... Steve Wozniak: ...to the only successful product that this company has ever made. I'm sorry to be blunt, but that happens to be the truth. The Lisa was a failure, the Macintosh was a failure. I don't like talking like this, but I am tired of being Ringo when I know I was John. Steve Jobs: Everybody loves Ringo. Steve Wozniak: And I am tired of being patronized by you! Steve Jobs: You think John became John by winning a raffle, Woz? You think he tricked somebody or hit George Harrison over the head? He was John because he was John. Steve Wozniak: He was John 'cause he wrote 'Ticket to Ride', and I wrote the Apple II. Andrea Cunningham: Everybody, I want to... Steve Jobs: Nobody moves! Steve Jobs: You made a beautiful board, which by the way you were willing to give out for free, so don't tell me how you built Apple. If it weren't for me, you'd be the easiest 'A' at Homestead High School. Steve Wozniak: These people live or die by your praise, so here's your chance: acknowledge that something good happened that you weren't in the room for! Steve Jobs: No. Steve Wozniak: Steve... do it! It's right, it's... it's right. Steve Jobs: Sorry, but no. Steve Wozniak: Then let me put it another way. I don't think there's a man who's done more to advance the democratization that comes with personal computing than I have, but you've never had any respect for me... now why is that? Steve Jobs: I'd at least consider the possibility that it's because you've never had any for me. Joanna Hoffman: What the hell is going on here? Steve Wozniak: Nothing. Thank you for your time.
Andy Hertzfeld: Skip over - everything else is working, skip over the voice demo. Steve Jobs: Fix it. Andy Hertzfeld: In forty minutes. Steve Jobs: Fix it. Andy Hertzfeld: I can't. Steve Jobs: Who's the person who can? Andy Hertzfeld: I'm the person who can, and I can't.
Andy Hertzfeld: It's a system error. Steve Jobs: Fix it! Andy Hertzfeld: Fix it? Steve Jobs: Yeah! Andy Hertzfeld: We're not a pit crew at Daytona. This can't be fixed in seconds. Steve Jobs: You didn't have seconds. You had three weeks. The universe was created in a third of that time. Andy Hertzfeld: Well, someday, you'll have to tell us how you did it.
Joanna Hoffman: Please, you have to tell me why it's so important for it to say "hello". Steve Jobs: Hollywood, they make computers scary things. See how this reminds you of a friendly face? That the disk slot is a goofy grin? It's warm and it's playful and it needs to say "hello"! Joanna Hoffman: The computer in 2001 said "hello" all the time and it still scared the shit out of me.
Steve Jobs: You came a half inch from putting this company out of business. Now who do I see about that? I'm letting you keep your job. You get a pass. Steve Wozniak: You know, when people used to ask me what the difference was between me and Steve Jobs, I would say Steve is the big picture guy and I like the solid workbench. When people ask the difference now, I say Steve is an asshole. Your products are better than you are, brother. Steve Jobs: That's the idea, "brother", and knowing that... that's the difference!
John Sculley: Just relax. Steve Jobs: Why? John Sculley: I don't know. No one's ever asked me that question.
Steve Jobs: Hey, Steve Wozniak is sitting out there. Give yourselves a treat and ask if he happens to have the correct time. Joanna Hoffman: I have the correct time, and we're running out of it.
Joanna Hoffman: Nice to see you. Hello, Lisa. We've met before and you told me you liked the way I talked and that was my favorite thing anyone's ever said to me. Lisa Brennan (5): You're from Poland. Joanna Hoffman: Yes, I am. Do you know where that is? Lisa Brennan (5): The top of the Earth. Joanna Hoffman: I think you're thinking of the North Pole.
Steve Jobs: What the hell cam a one-month-old do that's so bad his parents give him back? John Sculley: Nothing. There's nothing a one-month-old can do.
Steve Jobs: There are people 'round here, man, including a member of the press. Steve Wozniak: I see him. Steve Jobs: Woz... Steve Wozniak: The top guys, the ones who are getting laid off. Steve Jobs: Listen, okay? Last year Apple lost one billion dollars. I don't even know how that's possible. You were less than 90 days from being insolvent. I had three different accountants try to explain it to me. The whole place has to be streamlined. Steve Wozniak: Start with two of the accountants. Steve Jobs: I started with the Apple... Andrea Cunningham: Joel, could you come off stage? We're gonna go backstage for a moment... Steve Jobs: Leave him right there. Steve Jobs: I started with the Apple II team because we don't, you know, make that anymore. Steve Wozniak: Just acknowledge the top guys. Steve Jobs: Have a Mimosa and relax. Steve Wozniak: You will not blow me off right now, Steve! The tops guys are... Steve Jobs: There are no top guys, alright? In the Apple II team, there are no top guys. They're B players, and B players discourage the A players, and I want A players at Apple. Steve Wozniak: They are not B players, and I'm a better judge at that! Steve Jobs: Less than 90 days from insolvency, and part because somebody thought the Newton wasn't a box of garbage. Andrea Cunningham: Joel, could you come off... Steve Jobs: Leave him! Steve Wozniak: I'm talking about... Steve Jobs: You guys designed and shipped a little box of garbage while I was gone. Steve Wozniak: I'm talking about the Apple II! Which is not just a crucial part of this company's history; it is a crucial part of the history of personal computing! Steve Jobs: For a time! Steve Wozniak: The least you could do if you're going to downsize these people... Steve Jobs: They're gonna live in the biggest houses of anyone on the unemployment list. Steve Wozniak: ...is to acknowledge them! Acknowledge them and the Apple II during this launch!
Steve Jobs: Yes they are and what I want is a closed system. End to end control. Completely incompatible with anything. Steve Wozniak: Computers aren't supposed to have human flaws. Why would we want to incept this one with yours?
Steve Jobs: It was the stylus, John. John Sculley: What? Steve Jobs: I killed the Newton because of the stylus. If you're holding a stylus, you can't use the other five that are attached to your wrist. Steve Jobs: The things we could've done together. John Sculley: God, the things we could've done.
Chrisann Brennan: Things don't become so because you say so. Steve Jobs: There'll be more money in your account by the end of business.
John Sculley: Don't play stupid, you can't pull it off.
Steve Jobs: "The only thing Apple's providing now is leadership in colors." Joanna Hoffman: Don't worry about it. Steve Jobs: What does Bill Gates have against me? Joanna Hoffman: I don't know, you're both out of your minds.
