More quotes by Larry Ellison
We have been doing things that are contrary the things that people tell us won't work from the beginning. In fact, the only way to get ahead is to find errors in conventional wisdom.
Larry Ellison
I'm right, and everyone else is wrong.
Larry Ellison
You cannot innovate by copying.
Larry Ellison
The computer industry is the only industry that is more fashion-driven than women's fashion.
Larry Ellison
Really great blogs do not take the place of great microprocessors. Great blogs do not replace great software. Lots and lots of blogs does not replace lots and lots of sales.
Larry Ellison
To model yourself after Steve Jobs is like, 'I'd like to paint like Picasso, what should I do? Should I use more red?'
Larry Ellison
If your cash is about to run out, you have to cut your cash flow. CEOs have to make those decisions and live with them however painful they may be. You have to act and act now and act in the best interest of the company as a whole, even if it means that some people in the company who are your best friends have to work somewhere else.
Larry Ellison
Life's a journey. It's a journey about discovering limits.

Larry Ellison
I think about the business all the time. Well I shouldn't say all the time. I don't think about it when I am wakeboarding. But even when I am on vacation, or on my boat I am on email everyday. I am always prowling around the internet looking at what our competitors are doing.
Larry Ellison
If the Internet turns out not to be the future of computing, we're toast. But if it is, we're golden.
Larry Ellison
Right now, 70 percent of the people don't have computers. And where they're needed most, people don't have them. We think this will enable anyone to own a computer. We're aiming at everybody who uses a computer as an information access device. The original idea was to build one cheaply enough to put one on every desk.
Larry Ellison
Winning is not enough. All others must lose.
Larry Ellison
You realize that life is short and fragile and when you are facing walls of water, you understand your own mortality can change and how quickly things could change.
Larry Ellison
Our goal is simply to become the desktop for e-businesses.
Larry Ellison
A corporation's primary goal is to make money. Government's primary role is to take a big chunk of that money and give it to others.
Larry Ellison
When you live your life in different ways, it makes people around you become uncomfortable. So deal with it. They don't know what you are going to do.
Larry Ellison
When you innovate, you've got to be prepared for everyone telling you you're nuts.
Larry Ellison
Act confident, even when you're not.
