• Catching the apple doesn't overturn the law of gravity or the formulation of a
  new law. It's merely an intervention of a person with freewill who
  overrides the natural causes operative in that particular circumstance.
  And that is, essentially, is what God does when he causes a miracle to
  occur.

  William Lane Craig

• We'll get a chance to go through this [Apple versus Microsoft debate] again in phones and music players. There's no chance that the iPhone is going to get any significant market share. No chance. It's a $500 subsidized item. They may make a lot of money. But if you actually take a look at the 1.3 billion phones that get sold, I'd prefer to have our software in 60% or 70% or 80% of them, than I would to have 2% or 3%, which is what Apple might get.

• The wind is tossing the lilacs,
  The new leaves laugh in the sun,
  And the petals fall on the orchard wall,
  But for me the spring is done.
  Beneath the apple blossoms
  I go a wintry way,
  For love that smiled in April
  Is false to me in May.

  Sara Teasdale

• The shapes of letters do not derive their beauty from any sensual or sentimental reminiscences. No one can say that the O’s roundness appeals to us only because it is like that of an apple or of a girl’s breast or of the full moon. Letters are things, not pictures of things.

• Apple was very close to bankruptcy and to irrelevance [but] you learn a lot about life through death, and I learnt a lot about vital corporations by experiencing a non-vital corporation. You would have thought that, when what stands between you and bankruptcy is some money, your focus would be on making some money, but that was not [Steve Jobs’] preoccupation. His observation was that the products weren’t good enough and his resolve was, we need to make better products. That stood in stark contrast to the previous attempts to turn the company around.
