The CEO's job is always about leadership. It's about leadership in a vision, in terms of where you're going, it's about making sure that you have the right organization and staff, and that you have kind of clearly communicated what some of the plays are and what some of the goals are in terms of the business and how do you organize together in order to make that happen.

I am most heartened when I'm talking to a team when they're reasoning to each other.

I think Hillary [Clinton] has [woken up to the plight of the middle class] and is working toward it in a democratic process.

Entrepreneurship is a life idea, not a strictly business one; a global idea, not a strictly American one.

You should have an investment thesis that essentially says why you think this is potentially a good idea.

Part of the entrepreneurial thing is there are lots of ways to die.

The metaphor that I frequently use for entrepreneurship is jumping off a cliff and assembling an airplane plane on the way down.
