No one is born a CEO, but no one tells you that.

In life, you don't have a level of confrontation and the nonsense you run into when you're a CEO. CEOs aren't born.

I think the greatest CEOs in the United States, business, anyway, are the ones you don't hear too much about.

Businessmen... were not born chief executives. They were often people first.

I hadn't grown up always aspiring to be a CEO.

I think, you know, a fellow CEO said to me that the interesting thing about being CEO that's really striking is that you have very few decisions that you need to make, and you need to make them absolutely perfectly.

You know, technology CEOs like to think of themselves as rock 'n roll stars.

I never set out to be CEO. I always set out to be a good team member, a good colleague.

CEOs are called by their first names by young whippersnappers. That makes everybody uncomfortable. We need order and structure back in the workplace.
