More quotes by Mark Cuban
Always look for the fool in the deal. If you don't find one, it's you.
Mark Cuban
I think college is an absolute. In this world you have to learn how to learn and get in the habit of always wanting to learn. Some kids have that out of high school and may be able to do the college equivalent of home schooling. Most kids can't. So I highly recommend going to college.
Mark Cuban
Never follow your dreams. Follow your effort.
Mark Cuban
Do the work. Out-work. Out-think. Out-sell your expectations. There are no shortcuts.

A sure sign of failure for a startup is when someone sends me logo-embroidered polo shirts.

It comes down to finding something you love to do and then just trying to be great at it
Mark Cuban
It's not whether the glass is half empty or half full, it's who is pouring the water. The key in business and success at any endeavor is doing your best to control your destiny. You can't always do it, but you have to take every opportunity you can to be as prepared as-and ahead of-the competition as you possibly can be.

Everyone is passionate about something. Usually more than one thing. We are born with it. There are always going to be things we love to do. That we dream about doing. That we really, really want to do with our lives. Those passions aren't worth a nickel.
Mark Cuban
In these times of the Great Recession, we shouldn't be trying to shift the benefits of wealth behind some curtain. We should be celebrating and encouraging people to make as much money as they can. Profits equal tax money. While some people might find it distasteful to pay taxes, I don't. I find it patriotic.

One thing we can all control is effort

If you want to deal with me, email is the way you do it. Working via email means that everything I do is searchable. I can go back and check out discussion threads from more than 15 years ago.

I don't think there's any question that the UFL or any other league that wants to challenge the NFL can have an impact. The demand for professional football is off the charts.
Mark Cuban
As far as businesses, I was always hustling. I had to pay for my own school. I got 20 bucks every week or 2 from my dad and that was it. So I had a whatever it took attitude.
Mark Cuban
Ideas are easy. I've never met a single person who didn't think they had a world class idea. The hard part is making it a business.
Mark Cuban
If you're looking where everybody else is looking, you're looking in the wrong spot.
Mark Cuban
Do the things that make perfect sense to you, [and] don't be afraid to shout it from the mountain tops just because it's outside the box or against the grain in your industry. More often than not, you're probably going to be right.
Mark Cuban
I think that any reporter or columnist will be a little more careful when doing interviews with me.
Mark Cuban
We romanticize entrepreneurshi p so much that people don't do the work. It's not just a dream, not just a goal it's a lot of hard work. A lot of people are wantrepreneurs, not entrepreneurs.
