Steve Jobs on building things

Amid today's many recollections of Steve Jobs citing his quotable aphorisms, two particularly caught my attention:

People don't know what they want until you build it.


and related to that theme:

The builders are the real thinkers.


Jobs was immediately referring to engineers and consumers, but the statements are as true in scholarship as they are in any other endeavor.
