“Friendship exists outside our modern economy of scarcity... It's not about apportioning vanishing resources of time and energy. Friendship is a blessed relic of the ancient economy of the gift, and the time freely given to people dear to you actually creates magical abundance.”

“You may not get what you paid for, but you will pay for what you get.”

“I gotta new strategy it's called no strategy. And I gotta way to sell more music its called make better music.”

“I'm not the perfectionist anymore. It's my staff. They're the ones always insisting on doing something better and better.”

“Whether manufactured by black, white, brown or yellow hands, a widget remains a widget – and it will be bought anywhere if the price and quality are right. The market is a more powerful and more reliable liberating force than government can ever be.”
