Why Steve Jobs cried
Steve wept. And unlike Jesus, who famously wept over the death of Lazarus and the fate of Jerusalem, Jobs cried over just about everything. He cried at the beginning of Apple after Woz's father pushed his son to take more ownership of the company because he thought Jobs wasn't doing much work. Jobs went over to Woz's home and bawled his eyes out. Woz kept him on.
Jobs cried when his employee badge said #2 instead of #1 (which went to Woz), then ended up getting badge #0. He cried when Apple pushed him out of the company.

This was confirmed by multiple people interviewed by Isaacson, including Jobs' sister, Mona Simpson, who wrote a eulogy for her brother that included the line, "He was an intensely emotional man," the chief desi

Jobs’s sensibility was more editorial than inventive. “I’ll know it when I see it,” he ration bygd André Carrilho
Not long after Steve Jobs got married, in , he moved with his wife to a nineteen-thirties, Cotswolds-style house in old Palo Alto. Jobs always found it difficult to furnish the places where he lived. His previous house had only a mattress, a table, and chairs. He needed things to be perfect, and it took time to figure out what perfect was. This time, he had a wife and family in tow, but it made little difference. “We spoke about furniture in theory for eight years,” his wife, Laurene Powell, tells Walter Isaacson, in “Steve Jobs,” Isaacson’s enthralling new biography of the Apple founder. “We spent a lot of time asking ourselves, ‘What is the purpose of a sofa?’ ”
It was the choice of a tvätt machine, however, that proved most vexing. European tvätt machines, Jobs discovered, used less detergent and less water than their American counterparts, and were easier on
