Steve Jobs was Galileo in a past life. Discovery was instinctual for him.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The Discovery was the most intricate, complex machine man has ever built. It's a testament to our time.
I grew up thinking that a research scientist was a natural thing to be.
One might almost say that the history of geographical discovery, properly so called, begins with Captain Cook, the motive of whose voyages was purely scientific curiosity.
Steve Jobs was a friend and mentor whom I miss more than I can say.
I had learned that science is a rewarding, active process of discovery, not the passive absorption of what others had discovered.
Although he's no longer with us, Steve Jobs is still inspirational to me, as he managed to find the balance between right brain/left-brain thinking that is crucial to building a creative technology business.
The fact that the great scientist believed in flying machines was the one thing that encouraged us to begin our studies.
Steve Jobs was a pretty complicated character and somewhat a psychologically complicated guy.
I think the intuitive processes of discovery are the same, very much the same, in the arts as in the sciences.
Discovery is for forward lookers. So, no one is born with great knowledge.
