Steve Jobs' 2005 Stanford Commencement Address

Stanford · 9 recommenders · 8 months

Steve Jobs' 2005 Stanford commencement address, told through three stories: connecting the dots, love and loss, and death. It includes the calligraphy class and the 'stay hungry, stay foolish' close.

Why Hacker News readers recommend it: HN returns to it for motivation and perspective, and quotes it constantly, especially the connect-the-dots and remembering-death passages.
