"A big piece of the story we tell ourselves about who we are, is that we are willing to invent. We are willing to think long-term. We start with the customer and work backwards.

I believe if you don’t have that set of things in your corporate culture, then you can’t do large-scale invention."
Jeff Bezos, Amazon, on the balance between iteration and intuition.
