I look for something unique, and I look for people who haven't reached their potential. I think I'm pretty good at developing talent.

Everybody fears the unknown. But I have a strong feeling there's something bigger than us. I don't think all this exists because some rocks happened to collide. I'm at peace. When it comes, I'll be fine, calm. I'll miss life, though. Especially my family.

I hire people who can do their jobs and who will advise me of things they don't agree with. The worst thing you can do is get in a room with 14 people who say, "OK!" Then you really are making decisions about engineering and finance and other areas.

I only understand friendship or scorched earth.

The thing you always have to remember is, you look at people and they might look like a failure but there's often a narrow thing they do very well.

If you have a choice between qualifications and personal qualities when it comes to hiring people, go with personal qualities. You can teach them the job.

Fighting with the media almost always is a mistake. You can't win the argument, the media has the last word, and most times your argument is not justified.
