Bertelsmann understood our vision when they first invested in us... They still believe in that vision.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Vision is perhaps our greatest strength... it has kept us alive to the power and continuity of thought through the centuries, it makes us peer into the future and lends shape to the unknown.
We need to take advantage of the opportunity we have now to create a vision and become great.
Every vision is a joke until the first man accomplishes it; once realized, it becomes commonplace.
Halfway through the decade, we realized that we had a great team and that we could do great things, and that we could probably have something here that we believed we had a chance to reach greatness.
We had to move forward after the war and see the realities.
Forethought we may have, undoubtedly, but not foresight.
A lot of the American press at the time was saying 'just watch what happens when Bertelsmann tries to buy EMI, that will be a moment of truth that will show the Commission's true colors.' Well, that deal never happened either.
A vision is not just a picture of what could be; it is an appeal to our better selves, a call to become something more.
Our vision - Andrew's vision - was always to build a global, center-right, populist, anti-establishment news site.
To them though, not to us, we were just a catalyst for their imagination.
