Nobody likes to fail. I want to succeed in everything I do, which isn't much. But the things that I'm really passionate about, if I fail at those, if I'm not successful, what do I have?

My passion has been to build an enduring company where people were motivated to make great products. Everything else was secondary. Sure, it was great to make a profit, because that was what allowed you to make great products. But the products, not the profits were the motivation.

The important point is to not just follow your passion but something larger than yourself.

There is no passion to be found playing small - in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living.

Everyone can rise above their circumstances and achieve success if they are dedicated to and passionate about what they do.

People should pursue what they're passionate about. That will make them happier than pretty much anything else.
