From Keith's speech to future entreprenuers at Yale earlier this year:
"Everything that you want to get done in your business is a personal issue. There’s a person who is going to decide whether to give you money or not. There are individuals who are going to decide to be your first big customer or not. There’s a purchasing agent out there who you need to know. These are relationship issues. There are individuals who will decide your success or failure, and the question I would ask is, what is your relationship with them today?"

Have you heard this one?
Three guys stranded on a deserted island barely bigger than a beach towel.
A genie arrives and grants each guy one wish.
Guy 1 wishes he could be back with his friends in the civilized world.
"Poof!" The genie grants his wish and he disappears.
Guy 2 wishes he too could be back with his friends in the civilized world.
"Poof!" The genie grants his wish too.
Guy 3 scratches his head. Then he wishes:
"I wish my friends were back with me on this island."
Poof! They're all stuck on the island again.
MORAL: Misery may love company, but good friends help each other escape it.
