Steve...

Steve Jobs

1955 – 2011

Steve… thank you.

Thank you for your inspiration, for showing us what could be.

You were the original crazy one…

You were the genius…

You dared to be different…

You dared to fail…

You dared to succeed…

You dared to tell us what we wanted – definitely against marketing tradition, which says “give ‘em what they want.”

You knew we didn’t know what we wanted until you thought it into existence…

and then built it.

and showed it to us, like a proud parent.

You were… and always will be…

Insanely great.

Epilogue

Countless years from now, explorers will finally reach the edge of the universe. There they’ll encounter a curious, inexplicable phenomenon... a dent.

Rest now, Steve Jobs... your work here is done.
