Then he said wisely, "I'll not buy any more of these goods, but I'll go and ask people what they do want." Thereafter he studied the needs and desires of people, found out just what they most wanted, endeavored to meet those wants, and became the greatest business man of his time.”

It's not universal - but it's a good place to start.”
“It's very easy for me to laugh at myself and laugh at life.”
