Steve Jobs
Your customers don't care about you. They don't care about your product or service. They care about themselves, their dreams, their goals. Now, they will care much more if you help them reach their goals, and to do that, you must understand their goals, as well as their needs and deepest desires.
Steve Jobs
You can tell a lot about a person by who his or her heroes are.
