“If you have great people around you, they will take you higher than your dream will. Leaders are never self-made.

“The Internet rewards scale; by trading higher up-front costs for lower marginal cost, market leaders can invest in better technology and service.

“Coming into World War II, we were seen as a conquering hero for beleaguered people, we are now seen as invader, an occupier. And what that is saying is we have more might than right, so we kind of have a kind of moral deficit disorder.
