My whole life had been designing computers I could never build.

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

I really believe I know why my designs were better than any other human being, but I don't want to take credit for starting Apple, for turning the world around or anything like that.

The more we thought, the more they all sounded boring compared to Apple. You didn't have to have a real specific reason for choosing a name when you were a little tiny company of two people; you choose any name you want.

Geek it's really more a characteristic where you don't socialize. You don't talk the normal languages.

I have always respected education, which is why I actually went back secretly and taught school for eight years.

I was kind of amazed because I first found out about blue boxes in an article in Esquire magazine labeled fiction. That article was the most truthful article I've ever read in my life... That article was so truthful, and it told about a mistake in the phone company that let you dial phone calls anywhere in the world. What an amazing thing to discover.
