Rolling Stone: Tributes Pour In for Steve Jobs, Apple icon's death resonates around the world
Tributes Pour In for Steve Jobs
Apple icon's death resonates around the world

http://www.rollingstone.com/culture/news/tributes-pour-in-for-steve-jobs-20111006



President Barack Obama: Steve was fond of saying that he lived every day like it was his last. Because he did, he transformed our lives, redefined entire industries, and achieved one of the rarest feats in human history: he changed the way each of us sees the world... The world has lost a visionary. And there may be no greater tribute to Steve's success than the fact that much of the world learned of his passing on a device he invented.

New York Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg: Tonight, America lost a genius who will be remembered with Edison and Einstein, and whose ideas will shape the world for generations to come.

Steven Spielberg: Steve Jobs was the greatest inventor since Thomas Edison. He put the world at our fingertips.

George Lucas: The magic of Steve was that while others simply accepted the status quo, he saw the true potential in everything he touched and never compromised on that vision.

The hospital will pull a blue sheet over him, close all the windows, and reset the electric power.
