One of his best quote
"Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encounteree to
help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything-all external expectations,
all pride,all fear of embarrassment or failure- these things just fall away in the face of
death, leaving only what is truly important. 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
