Last American Who Knew What The Fuck He Was Doing Dies CUPERTINO, CA—Steve Jobs, the visionary co-founder of Apple Computers and the only American in the country who had any clue what the fuck he was doing, died Wednesday at the age of 56. "We haven't just lost a great innovator, leader, and businessman, we've literally lost the only person in this country who actually had his shit together and knew what the hell was going on," a statement from President Barack Obama read in part, adding that Jobs will be remembered both for the life-changing products he created and for the fact that he was able to sit down, think clearly, and execute his ideas—attributes he shared with no other U.S. citizen. "This is a dark time for our country, because the reality is none of the 300 million or so Americans who remain can actually get anything done or make things happen.

Steve Jobs: "Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish" | Features I am honored to be with you today at your commencement from one of the finest universities in the world. I never graduated from college. Truth be told, this is the closest I’ve ever gotten to a college graduation. Today I want to tell you three stories from my life. That’s it. The first story is about connecting the dots. I dropped out of Reed College after the first 6 months, but then stayed around as a drop-in for another 18 months or so before I really quit. It started before I was born. And 17 years later I did go to college. It wasn’t all romantic. Reed College at that time offered perhaps the best calligraphy instruction in the country. None of this had even a hope of any practical application in my life. Again, you can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. My second story is about love and loss. I was lucky — I found what I loved to do early in life. I really didn’t know what to do for a few months. My third story is about death.

How Steve Jobs Changed the Story It’s been simply astonishing to see the heartfelt response to the death of Steve Jobs. Here was a successful businessman and CEO: a billionaire no less. Not the kind of positions that usually produce such public affection. But he touched many lives and many hearts in a profound and powerful way… The story didn’t start so promising: He was born to an unwed mother and put up for adoption. Dropped out of college. He changed the story… And changed the world in ways both small and majestic. He had belief. Your story up to this point doesn’t have to be how the book ends. You get a new beginning in life by becoming a new you. You have the power to create your destiny. There is a new you locked inside you at this very moment. Steve changed the story because he was an innovator and a visionary. One thing is certain: If your life is boring, it is not the life you are meant to live. If Steve Jobs touched your life like he did mine, do his memory justice.
