“being the richest man in the cemetery doesn’t matter to
me...going to bed at night saying we’ve done something wonderful...
that’s what matters to me.” - the wall street journal, summer of 93
“my job is not to be easy on people. my job is to take all these great
people we have & push them and make them even better”

them away.”- playboy magazine, february 1985
“let’s go invent tomorrow rather than worrying about
what happened yesterday”
