While a good leader sustains momentum, a great leader increases it.

The secret to successful hiring is this: look for the people who want to change the world.

Do or do not. There is no try.

I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.

One day your life will flash before your eyes. Make sure it is worth watching

The loftiest towers rise from the ground.

Failure defeats losers, failure inspires winners.

The vision must be followed by the venture. It is not enough to stare up the steps – we must step up the stairs.

Our business in life is not to get ahead of others, but to get ahead of ourselves.

Don’t be cocky. Don’t be flashy. There’s always someone better than you.

Never, never, never, never, in nothing great or small, large or petty, never give in except to convictions of honour and good sense. Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.

What do you need to start a business? Three simple things: know your product better than anyone, know your customer, and have a burning desire to succeed.

Nothing will ever be attempted if all possible objections must first be overcome.

Be really picky with your hiring, and hire the absolute best people you possibly can. People are the most important component of almost every business, and attracting the best talent possible is going to make a huge difference.

Make happy those who are near, and those who are far will come.

Entrepreneurship is neither a science nor an art. It is a practice.

You can say anything to anyone, but how you say it will determine how they will react.

You should always stay hungry. Stay hungry, so you can eat.

Lend your friend $20. If he doesn’t pay you back then he’s not your friend. Money well spent.
