"I believe in the power of storytelling. It's how we make sense of the world."

2000年：贝索斯致股东信《即使在最残酷的时期，也将努力把公司打造更具“重量”》

Don’t take it personally when someone turns you down. Assume they are like you: busy， occupied， distracted. Try again later. It’s amazing how often a second try works.

I think we have gone through a period when too many children and people have been given to understand 'I have a problem, it is the Government's job to cope with it!' or 'I have a problem, I will go and get a grant to cope with it!' 'I am homeless, the Government must house me!' and so they are casting their problems on society and who is society? There is no such thing! There are individual men and women and there are families and no government can do anything except through people and people look to themselves first.

最好的投资是投资于你相信的人。
