Quoted from Mona Simpson’s eulogy for her brother Steve Jobs on October 16 at his memorial service at the Memorial Church at Stanford University via The New York Times:
His philosophy of aesthetics reminds me of a quote that went something like this: “Fashion is what seems beautiful now but looks ugly later; art can be ugly at first but it becomes beautiful later.”
Steve always aspired to make beautiful later.
Steve’s aspirations led to beautiful, now and later.
