Tuesday Quote #6

So the iPhone 5 is the big buzz nowadays, but not many people recognize Jobs for the pholosophical genius he is and was.

This is for him.

“No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don’t want to die to get there. And yet death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it. And that is as it should be, because Death is very likely the single best invention of Life. It is Life’s change agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new. Right now the new is you, but someday not too long from now, you will gradually become the old and be cleared away. Sorry to be so dramatic, but it is quite true."

-Steve Jobs

It is true, it is harsh, it is life. And that's what makes it so genius. That's why we should always strive to be positive agents of change, and not negative. If it's going to be new, it had better be good.
