The sentence reads
"SIMPLICITY IS THE ULTIMATE SOPHISTICATION"
It's said by Leonardo Da Vinci.
He was born on April 15, 1452
The clue was this:
Though some people find me unfortunate, I am on the list baby
The unfortunate number is 13. So, if each letter in the riddle is shifted by 13, we get the quote!! 😀

To clarify, the 2nd picture signified Pixies.
They had a track named "No. 13 Baby".
That's where the number 13 came from, in addition to it being unfortunate and all.... 😀

@SS - Too Good of a answer, HATS OFF. No-one other than SS could have reach there with this speed.
Combination of First clue and second clue :
CLue 1, Picture - Apple - pple’s first brochure, the headline was ‘Simplicity is the Ultimate Sophistication’. Also Steve Job used to give this quote in almost all his big presentations - “Simplicity is the Ultimate Sophistication.”
Clue 1, Text - Shifts
Clue 2, Picture - Doodle Pixies,
Clue 2, Text - Unfortunate, I am on list Baby --> No. 13 Baby
As told by SS, shifting every character by 13 letter given in the question we get “Simplicity is the Ultimate Sophistication.” which was originally given by Leonardo Da Vinci (April 15, 1452)

from the first clue "apple" i can say that the famous man was the late former Apple CEO Steve Jobs. may his soul rest in peace.
from the second clue "Picies (Feb.19-Mar.20)" was the zodiac sign of Steve Jobs' birthday of February 24, 1955.
The above sentence' every character when converted, i.e. f=s, v=i, z=m, c=p & so on, corresponds to "Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.". 😉

from the first clue "apple", i can say that the famous man who said the above sentence was the late former Apple CEO STEVE JOBS. may his soul rest in peace.
from the second clue "Picies", that was the Zodiac sign of Steve Job's birthday of Feb. 24, 1955.
from the 2nd clue again, the famous unfortunate number 13 will be added to every letter in the above sentence to come up with another letter in the alphabet (i.e. f+13= s, v+13= i, & so on) & the converted sentence will be "SIMPLICITY IS THE ULTIMATE SOPHISTICATION."

Before closing this thread, I would like to mention that -
Apart from the 1st clue's reference to Mr. Steve Jobs ( _/\_ Respect), it also meant - The apple gets 'rotten' with time. Thus, giving an indirect reference to ROT13 encryption technique.
😀
I hope everyone enjoyed solving it.
