I have met many entrepreneurs who have the passion and even the work ethic to succeed - but who are so obsessed with an idea that they don't see its obvious flaws. Think about that. If you can't even acknowledge your failures, how can you cut the rope and move on?

Don’t let the dark clouds of greed confuse you

I do not own a single security anywhere that doesn't pay a dividend, and I formed a mutual-fund company with that very simple philosophy.

I'm not going to leave Canada, I'm going to fix it.

The only reason to do business is to make money; that's the only reason for doing business.

I remember failing reading in school at a young age, and you just kinda get left behind and I felt helpless.

I'd rather invest in an entrepreneur who has failed before than one who assumes success from day one.
