Money is overrated. Truly new things rarely need an abundance of money. If that was so， billionaires would have a monopoly on inventing new things， and they don’t. Instead almost all breakthroughs are made by those who lack money， because they are forced to rely on their passion， persistence and ingenuity to figure out new ways. Being poor is an advantage in innovation.

"The challenge is to make the impossible look believable."

如果你做不到，那就去教别人。

The best leaders are those who listen more than they speak.

I think we have a unique culture at Amazon that encourages both risk-taking and long-term thinking.
