“My model for business is The Beatles: They were four guys that kept each

other’s negative tendencies in check; they balanced each other. And the total was greater than the sum of the parts.

Great things in business are not done by one person, they are done by a team of

people” (60 minutes” magazine in 2008)

“That's been one of my mantras - focus and simplicity. Simple can be harder than complex: You have to

work hard to get your thinking clean to make it simple. But it's worth it in the end because once you get there,

you can move mountains”  ( at Business Week, 25thMay,1998)
