Some people have great ideas maybe once or twice in their life, and then they discover electricity or fire or outer space or something. I mean, the kind of brilliant ideas that change the whole world. Some people never have them at all... I get them two or three times a week. Neil Gaiman
About This Quote

Steve Jobs was an Apple employee and the creator of the iPod, iPhone and iPad. In a commencement speech to Stanford University in 2005, Jobs quoted himself from a commencement address he gave in 1995: “Some people have great ideas maybe once or twice in their life, but most people have ideas that are good enough to work with. Most people can’t do that. Some people have great ideas, and they sit on those ideas for a long time because they’re not sure if they’re going to be able to do it. I get them two or three times a week.”
