Highlights:

“I just enjoy playing the game… I know I would do it if it didn’t make money.”  

“At some point you have to expand… I was just in a pond, and everyone else was going after an ocean.”  

“If I’m afraid to take a risk now, I’ll never be able to take a risk later.”  

“You have to provide value—make them an offer so good they feel stupid saying no.”
