Amazon’s CEO Jeff Bezos says “We see our customers as invited guests to a party, and we are the hosts. It’s our job every day to make every important aspect of the customer experience a little bit better”
“Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts” – Winston Churchill
