I could argue that his greatest legacy is the phone I’m now holding in my hand, but his real creation is the company that makes it all happen, one that he passionately started, nurtured and elegantly passed on.

His greatest strength is knowing what people are capable of, and meticulously capacitate them to see things beyond the horizon, outside their realm of possibility. The resulting ivy league team is an extension of his mind, his bigger Self, whose mortal body could barely handle.

His greatest gift is that little dedication that most of us selfishly carry to our death bed: passing the knowledge down to every detail without making it his own.
