OP quote 4 is also nowhere else on the web, and thus dubious.
OP 7 is from the Whole Earth Catalog, but Jobs did utter that phrase in a Stanford commencement address while providing the correct attribution.

Excuse me mr. Steve but I'm afraid you haven't done your homework properly here. Or maybe you are a fan who cant stand to see your idol tarnished? My purpose is only to present fact, I'm neither for nor against jobs as a figure, but I am amused that Apple has become a fetish cult in recent years. My question is why? Here are some more quotes from Mr. Jobs...
'You know, there are many people at Apple who can buy everything that they could ever possibly want and still have most of their money unspent. I hate talking about this as a problem; people are going to read this and think, Yeah, well, give me your problem. They’re going to think I’m an arrogant little asshole.'
'If he wants to know why, just tell him I'm an asshole.'
'So, you’ve uncovered the fact that I’m an asshole. Why is that news?'
-Steve Jobs
