"I wish him the best, I really do. I just think he and Microsoft are a bit narrow. He'd be a broader guy if he had dropped acid once or gone off to an ashram when he was younger."

Actually, "Good artists copy, great artists steal" is quotation from Pablo Picasso.... I think. I remember Steve quoting Picasso in "Revenge Of The Nerds"...

Very good.

I must admit it is not a pure Jobsian quote but indeed it was said by him (the movie was "Pirates of Silicon Valley" - but the reference to it is not apocrafle)

so a real Jobs quote..... hmmm.....
