„Pointed threats, they bluff with scornSuicide remarks are tornFrom the fool’s gold mouthpiece the hollow hornPlays wasted words, proves to warnThat he not busy being born is busy dying“

„You always have to keep pushing to innovate. Dylan could have sung protest songs forever and probably made a lot of money, but he didn’t. He had to move on, and when he did, by going electric in 1965, he alienated a lot of people. His 1966 Europe tour was his greatest…. The Beatles were the same way. They kept evolving, moving, refining their art. That’s what I’ve always tried to do — keep moving. Otherwise, as Dylan says, if you are not busy being born, you’re busy dying.“
— Steve Jobs
„I was too busy to oblige them by dying just now.“
