"He was a careful craftsman who was self-taught," Jobs said as he pointed out each of the details.

a chest of drawers and a mattress in his bedroom,

餐廳里的一張牌桌和幾把折疊椅。
He wanted around him only things that he could admire, and that made it hard simply to go out and buy a lot of furniture.
他希望身邊只出現他欣賞的東西，這就意味著，很難簡簡單單地出去買很多家具。

he had to make some concessions to necessity. But it was hard.
