Every new thing creates two new questions and two new opportunities.

All businesses need to be young forever. If your customer base ages with you, you're Woolworth's.

Seek instant gratification - or the elusive promise of it - and chances are you'll find a crowd there ahead of you.

The smartest people are constantly revising their understanding, reconsidering a problem they thought they’d already solved. They’re open to new points of view, new information, new ideas, contradictions, and challenges to their own way of thinking.
