  • “There are two kinds of people in the world: people with systems, and people who are broke.”

  • “I would never take a check from my father.”

  • “Goals are for idiots. Systems are subject to constant refinement.”

  • “The right system never lets you fail.”

  • “What my father did with thousands, I did with millions.”

  • “I was my father with three more zeros.”

  • “On the one hand, we lost everything. On the other hand, we never really had it.”

  • “Small & Smart is not just the best way to do business. It is the best way to live.”
