Here is the full quote and the author:

When you grow up you tend to get told the world is the way it is and your job is just to live your life inside the world. Try not to bash into the walls too much. Try to have a nice family life, have fun, save a little money.

That’s a very limited life. Life can be much broader once you discover one simple fact, and that is - everything around you that you call life, was made up by people that were no smarter than you. And you can change it, you can influence it, you can build your own things that other people can use.

Steve Jobs said the above in an interview for PBS' 'One Last Thing' documentary

TJ evolves into a friend of Maurice. They have exchanged punches for 2 decades. Then they became equals.

TJ with his gold. Maurice with his Qualcomm infatuation. Even changing his name for MQ.

MQ, to use hos trade mark evolved as he retired form British Petroleum (BP). The British name in BP left an indelible stamp into MQ brain.

Through out his life pos- BP he sings the praise of Britishness against all the evidence. And I had been always telling about that foolishness.

As he couldn't counter argue, he tried to be funny about it when it was convenient.

The proof of TJs evolution to the worse is the fact he became a defender of MQ and vice versa.

I am here here: WTF!

Why is no one saying: Weren't these two guys opposite poles?

What is the reason they became two guys with the same opinions?

Yes, TJ evolved into old age, the more he became MQ owing to their age difference.

Which prompted me to discover that: THE WHOLE THREAD HAS EVOLVED

They evolved together. Therefore, they cannot see the final personas they have become.

I am asking: How comes. Elmat has not evolved into an old version of himself?

I mean not physically, I mean mentally. I am still framing things the way I did in 1998. I can still separate fact from fiction. I still can nuances. Shades of gray.

I can still revert back to a decade or two back and pick the facts and relate

I didn't evolve. Thanks God my brain is still holding on.
