This is Steve Job's speech at Stanford's 2005 Commencement ceremony. I have came across the transcript of this speech before, and has found it to be enlightening. I must say that when I was kind of ambivalent about whether to continue in graduate school or go work for a big company to earn more $$$, I read the line where he said "You want to do something you love. Don't live your life under someone else's dogma, but live your life to pursue what you love to do" (somewhat paraphrasing), and realized that even I am not earning big bucks now, research is what I enjoy doing. Hence, you can say that Steve Jobs indirectly influenced me to stay on as a graduate student doing research.
