11. Words of inspiration
On courage: I am, unfortunately, a
person who has often said: You put a gun
to my head and pull the trigger or take
the gun away, I won’t move my head.
On leadership: It is easy to become a number
one player, but it is difficult to remain number
one. So, we will have to fight with a view to
remain number one.
On customers: We should be treating the
customer in the same way that we would want
to be treated as customers..
