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

To me, business isn't about wearing suits or pleasing stockholders. It's about being true to yourself, your ideas and focusing on the essentials.

Here in France, I've seen some very good young designers, but they don't have this ability to be good businessmen, too. I think America gives you this.

I think corporations and people are very different. People make corporations whatever it is that they're going to be.

Businessmen need to understand the challenges of society and contribute to solving them.

Successful companies obviously have people with ideas and energy.

I think there are many honest businessmen.

Building a company isn't that different from climbing a big mountain. You need people helping you traverse treacherous paths and to lift you up when you fall.

All businessmen are scum.
