When I'm writing a book - say I'm going to write a parenting book. I'll go out and buy the 100 top parenting books and I will read those, not so I can copy them for sure.

I looked at the fact that people were in such financial trouble I said well people are broke because they want to be.

If it's a good idea, do it today. Not tomorrow. A good idea rarely gets better over time.

I've read over 4,000 books in the last 20+ years. I don't know anybody who's read more books than I have. I read all the time. I read very, very fast. People say, "Larry, it's statistically impossible for you to have read that many books."

Be the kind of person others admire, can count on, trust, and enjoy spending time with. After you have developed that reputation, people will start to ask you what you do and you will be amazed at how many people will want to work with you. You will attract others based on your character.

Dreams don't come true. Plans come true!

Everything has a price, including both success and failure. Choose either one and be prepared to pay the price.
