Quote of the Day: Steve Jobs, on what's important

I was watching a cool YouTube video the other day and I saw this quote. Really made me think.

".. almost everything – all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure - these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart." - Steve Jobs

Here is one source where I found the quote. From Thinkexist.com:

Oh yeah, I should probably link to the video, too. Very well done, very touching. You should watch it. So here it is:
