Tim Cook 指,他有兩顆啟發他人生的北極星,第一顆是「北極星」對抗種族歧視的馬丁路德金,令他找到對的價值觀,令他明白只要堅持自己的信念,堅持自己認為對的事,終可以改變世界。
For you graduates, the process of discovering yourself, of inventing yourself, of reinventing yourself is about to begin in earnest. It’s about finding your values and committing to live by them. You have to find your North Star. And that means choices. Some are easy. Some are hard. And some will make you question everything.
He was an idealist. And in that way he reminded me of how I felt as a teenager. In that first meeting he convinced me if we worked hard and made great products, we too could help change the world. I took the job and changed my life. It’s been 17 years and I have never once looked back.

他又叮囑學生,不要只說不做,應該積極解決問題,世界需要你落場,解決問題,制止不公義。世界需要年輕人的能量及熱情:
Graduates, your values matter. They are your North Star. And work takes on new meaning when you feel you are pointed in the right direction. Otherwise, it’s just a job, and life is too short for that.
他又鼓勵年輕人,面對困難不要退縮,走出世俗眼光:
The sidelines are not where you want to live your life. The world needs you in the arena. There are problems that need to be solved. Injustices that need to be ended. People that are still being persecuted, diseases still in need of cure. No matter what you do next, the world needs your energy. Your passion. Your impatience with progress.
Tim Cook 作為蘋果CEO,不忘為蘋果宣傳一番。在致辭前,叮囑各位同學及出席典禮人士記得關手機,借機宣傳蘋果的回收政策:
Don’t shrink from risk. And tune out those critics and cynics.
致辭後又拿出自己的iPhone 6 ,拍下畢業生們的樣子留念。
Those of you with an iPhone, just place it in silent mode. If you don’t have an iPhone, please pass it to the center aisle. Apple has a world‑class recycling program.。
