More quotes by Jeff Bezos
You don't chose your passion, your passion choses you
Jeff Bezos
One of the things that gets me up in the morning is knowing that customer expectations are always rising, and I find that very exciting.
Jeff Bezos
Though we are optimistic, we must remain vigilant and maintain a sense of urgency.
Jeff Bezos
I don't think that you can invent on behalf of customers unless you're willing to think long-term, because a lot of invention doesn't work. If you're going to invent, it means you're going to experiment, and if you're going to experiment, you're going to fail, and if you're going to fail, you have to think long term.
Jeff Bezos
We've done price elasticity studies, and the answer is always that we should raise prices. We don't do that, because we believe -- and we have to take this as an article of faith -- that by keeping our prices very, very low, we earn trust with customers over time, and that that actually does maximize free cash flow over the long term.
Jeff Bezos
If you are going to do large-scale invention, you have to be willing to do three things: You must be willing to fail you have to be willing to think long term and you have to be willing to be misunderstood for long periods of time.
Jeff Bezos
If you don't understand the details of your business you are going to fail.
Jeff Bezos
If you invent frequently and are willing to fail, then you never get to that point where you really need to bet the whole company.
Jeff Bezos
Focusing on the customer makes a company more resilient.

Amazon Pages and Amazon Upgrade leverage Amazon's existing 'Search Inside the Book' technology to give customers unusual flexibility in how they buy and read books, .. In collaboration with our publishing partners, we're working hard to make the world's books instantly accessible anytime and anywhere.
Jeff Bezos
What I want to talk to you about today is the difference between gifts and choices. Cleverness is a gift, kindness is a choice. Gifts are easy - they’re given after all. Choices can be hard. You can seduce yourself with your gifts if you’re not careful, and if you do, it’ll probably be to the detriment of your choices.
Jeff Bezos
There'll always be serendipity involved in discovery.
Jeff Bezos
I'm going to go do this crazy thing. I'm going to start this company selling books online.
Jeff Bezos
Seek instant gratification - or the elusive promise of it - and chances are you'll find a crowd there ahead of you.
Jeff Bezos
The common question that gets asked in business is, why? That’s a good question, but an equally valid question is, why not?
Jeff Bezos
You know, if you make a customer unhappy they won't tell five friends, they'll tell 5,000 friends. So, we are at a point now where we have all of the things we need to build an important and lasting company, and if we don't, it will be shame on us.
Jeff Bezos
Our point of view is we will sell more if we help people make purchasing decisions.
Jeff Bezos
I have a strongly held belief that one of the reasons that Amazon has been successful is because we do not obsess over competitors. Instead we obsess over customers.
Jeff Bezos
Our vision is every book ever printed in any language [fetched and viewable on our eBook Kindle device] in under 60 seconds.
Jeff Bezos
The three most important things in retail are location, location, location. The three most important things for our consumer business are technology, technology, technology.
Jeff Bezos
