I like to bet on people, especially those who have taken risks and failed in some way, because they have more real-world experience. And they’re humble.

From the beginning... I wanted to build a company that could sustain not for two years or four years or even ten years but be something that really matters over time the way Amazon and Google and others have.

The first rule (of investing) for me is don't have rules. You find one amazing investment and that's all that matters. If you pick the right body of water, you might not need a boat.

I've been good at product entrepreneuring.

You're not smarter than your competitor. Just copy what they do and do it until you get their numbers.

I’ve grown a lot, and I’m learning every week.

You can manage 50 people through the strength of your personality and lack of sleep. You can touch them all in a week and make sure they're all pointed in the right direction.
