Comment on Smithsonian Institution Oral History Interview with Steve Jobs (1995)

Comments

I really appreciate his idea on the responsibility of power/success: "I don't think that people have special responsibilities just because they've done something that other people like or don't like. I think the work speaks for itself." Pretty honest. Really implies the responsibility is in the achieving of the success itself. Which I guess contrasts with achieving success in less than responsible ways, and then feeling compelled to be responsible about it after the fact. Very unique approach, something I haven't really considered. I think it makes sense.
