Quotes by David Packard

• Take risks. Ask big questions. Don't be afraid to make mistakes; if you don't make mistakes, you're not reaching far enough.
• Why are we here? I think many people assume, wrongly, that a company exists solely to make money. Money is an important part of a company's existence, if the company is any good. But a result is not a cause. We have to go deeper and find the real reason for our being.
• Marketing is too important to be left to the marketing department.
• You appear to have a good project... we wish you well in this endeavor.
