BEST MOMENTS

"The best way to get people to hate you is to be successful doing something you love."

"Would I want to be stood next to this person at two o'clock in a February cold, dark, windy night in a gale in a North Atlantic fishing boat when everything was going wrong?"

"How long does it take to take the stone out of your shoe?"

"If you're not happy in a job, if you're not happy in a company, amazing, you're an individual, you've got free will, leave."

"Unless you're going to disrupt an industry, just stick with your idea. Like, don't do it. Like, the only success is if you're going to disrupt something."
