The greatest car ever should get out there and do the job, but it should do more besides, which is why I have to say it's the Ferrari 355.

We are reaping the fruits of ten thousand, fifty thousand years of sowing of the fields of mind.

I'd be like, alright, I don't know anything about sales. So I would search for sales on Amazon, get the three top-rated books and just go at it. I did that for marketing, finance, product, engineering. If there was one thing that was really important for me, that was it.
