Jobs revealed to Isaacson that during a “late-night phone conversation” between he and the President, Clinton asked for advice on how to deal with the scandal.

"I don't know if you did it, but if so, you've got to tell the country," Jobs said he told Clinton.

And how did Clinton respond?  "There was silence on the other end of the line," Jobs says in the book.

Jobs also confessed to being star-struck when he met Bob Dylan. Mick Jagger he thought was either "on drugs or brain-damaged" when they met, he said.
