Rest in peace, Steve. :idea:
I think there is something to this train of thought for sure. In the last few weeks I've read a lot of positive and negative articles related to Jobs and it's fair to say he was to some degree controlling, and to some degree unable to release issues with anger- the Android quote is the most tell tale there.
However, it's hard to get a completely accurate picture of a person from the news without knowing him, well, personally.
Whatever the nature of his being, I have to say I've a lot of respect for his aesthetics, vision, and in general his can-do attitude. When he came back to Apple it was nearly bankrupt, and we all know the story from there.
There's also this video- a commencement speech he gave at Stanford (I think) in 2005. Sorry if it's already been posted- I didn't read all the replies here before posting.
