Steve Case Quotes

Having a great idea is important. But having a great team is also important Picture Quote #1

You really need to believe that you are on to something important Picture Quote #1

Anything is possible if you put your mind to it and you really work hard Picture Quote #1

At the end of the day, the team you build is the company you build Picture Quote #1

You shouldn’t focus on why you can’t do something, which is what most people do. You should focus on why perhaps you can, and be one of the exceptions Picture Quote #1

It’s not about how to get started; it’s about how to get noticed Picture Quote #1

There are no road signs to help navigate. And, in fact, no one has yet determined which side of the road we’re supposed to be on Picture Quote #1

Nobody should have to be a systems integrator to make a convergence network work in their home Picture Quote #1

My father still is a lawyer, and my mom was a teacher and then later a career counselor Picture Quote #1

My father and his brothers were all lawyers, so I think that the expectation was probably for me to grow up to be an attorney, but it never really fascinated me that much. I was more interested in building things Picture Quote #1

It’s stunning to me what kind of an impact even one person can have if they have the right passion, perspective and are able to align the interest of a great team Picture Quote #1

If you’re doing something new you’ve got to have a vision. You’ve got to have a perspective. You’ve got to have some north star you’re aiming for, and you just believe somehow you’ll get there, which kind of gets to the passion point Picture Quote #1

I had an older brother who passed away recently, an older sister and a younger brother Picture Quote #1

I do think actually in this case the government does get credit for funding some of the basic research Picture Quote #1

For better or worse, that is true with any new innovation, certainly any new technological innovation. There’s many good things that come out of it, but also some bad things. All you can do is try to maximize the good stuff and minimize the bad stuff Picture Quote #1

You have to get along with people, but you also have to recognize that the strength of a team is different people with different perspectives and different personalities Picture Quote #1

I do think that a general liberal arts education is very important, particularly in an uncertain changing world Picture Quote #1

And I’d say one of the great lessons I’ve learned over the past couple of decades, from a management perspective, is that really when you come down to it, it really is all about people and all about leadership Picture Quote #1

One of the biggest challenges we had in the first decade was not that many people had personal computers. There weren't that many people to sell to, and it was hard to identify them Picture Quote #1

If you believe that some day it’s going to happen, some day it probably will happen. You just have to make sure you’re there when it’s happening, and ideally you’re at the front of the parade, and the principle beneficiary of when it happens Picture Quote #1

I’m probably never going to be satisfied with anything we do. I think there’s always the possibility of doing better. And I’d say we’re doing better than we were a year ago, in terms of delivery and quality of service, but nowhere near what we should be doing Picture Quote #1

It’s silly for me to raise expectations too much, but I think I’m right on the basic trend, which is shifting power to consumers Picture Quote #1

Keep your eye on the prize and focus on your mission. Remember what you’re trying to do, what your value is, why it’s important, and at the same time, change course and direction. If the market’s telling you different things how are you going to adjust to that? Picture Quote #1

I want to find people who have had to work hard and who have learned from their failures. Perseverance is no guarantee you’ll succeed, but without it, it’s almost guaranteed you won’t Picture Quote #1

All great ideas start as weird ideas. What now seems obvious, early on, is not obvious to anybody Picture Quote #1

The idea of an entrepreneur is really thinking out of the box and taking risks and stepping up to major challenges Picture Quote #1

The attackers are the people with bold, innovative ideas, who are trying to disrupt the status quo, and usher in a better way. We need to think out of the box, and be curious, and be willing to take risks Picture Quote #1

You’re not just trying to do something marginally, incrementally better. You’re doing something that is a fundamental paradigm shift, that will have exponential impact. That means it’s harder to do, but ultimately, if it’s successful, the impact it has is far greater Picture Quote #1

So you have to force yourself out of a comfort zone and really try to figure out what are the key ingredients, the key skill sets, the key perspectives that are necessary, and then figure out a way to attract the very best people to fill those particular roles Picture Quote #1

So we believed that strategic alliances and partnerships were critical, and we did that for five years Picture Quote #1
