Tim Cook Quotes

  • Too often people think about intuition as the same as relying on luck or faith. At least as I see it, nothing could be further from the truth. Intuition can tell you, of the doors that are open to you, which one you should walk through. But intuition cannot prepare you for what’s on the other side of that door.” ~Tim Cook
  • “There’s this thing in technology, almost a disease, where the definition of success is making the most.

He focused on making the best.” ~Tim Cook
