I went - I had designed - in high school designed hundreds and hundreds of computers over and over and over, so I developed these skills without ever thinking I'd do it in life as job.

Rockets are bad technology. iPhones are good technology

I sold my most valuable possession, but I knew that because I worked at Hewlett Packard, I could buy the next model calculator the very next month for a lower price than I sold the older one for!

I started passing out the schematics and the code listings for the computer, telling everyone here it is. It's small, it's simple, it's inexpensive: Build your own. No idea to start a company. Steve Jobs came by later and say, you know, people are interested. Why don't we start a company?

I think everything I have done in my life, my reasons at the time were right no matter how things worked out.

I absolutely do not need a salary or a job, that's the last thing I need.

We truly could have used the later Jobs in earlier years at Apple, is what I feel.
