Some words from that video.
"If anything is gonna be good. Things are really good, are good because people are really really tough. And you're gonna be really tough."
"You run a lot of stuff and it's gonna go nowhere. You should be happy about that. If you are doing that, you're doing it right."
"You get rid of a lot crap before you get anything special. "
