Good results is not an entitlement. It has to be earned and earned each individual working day via the lens of humility.

Starbucks is rekindling America's love affair with coffee, bringing romance and fresh flavor back to the brew.

I think what we're lacking in society, not only in the U.S. but also around the world, is to find heroes once again and to celebrate these kind of people.

I honestly never dreamed at the time that I would one day own the Starbucks and or be in a position where we would have more than 10,000 stores around the world. It has just been an incredible journey for all of us.

You walk into a retail store, whatever it is, and if there's a sense of entertainment and excitement and electricity, you wanna be there.

Risk more than others think safe.

If you don't love what you're doing with unbridled passion and enthusiasm, you're not going to succeed when you hit obstacles.
