“Steve Jobs gave a small private presentation about the iTunes Music Store to some independent record label people. My favorite line of the day was when people kept raising their hand saying, "Does it do [x]?", "Do you plan to add [y]?". Finally Jobs said, "Wait wait â€� put your hands down.

Innovation is not about saying yes to everything. It's about saying NO to all but the most crucial features.”
― Derek Sivers

Build a tangled bank.”
― Steven Johnson, Where Good Ideas Come From: The Natural History of Innovation
