Hell, there are very few people who can create an industry out of a silly idea, be fired from that same company then return 10 years later and turn that sinking ship into a large multi-billion dollar business again.

what does he mean by saying "Stay hungry. Stay foolish."

Maybe it means, 'Don't be satisfied and complacent with where you are right now' and 'Be prepared to follow your instincts/intuition even if it seems foolish or defies common wisdom - take risks'
A very inspiring speech. Thanks Stanford.
