Sublime

venture capital is the business of risk taking.

It seemed really natural to give more funding to people who could do more with it and to find great deals for people who had money but didn’t have differentiated or interesting portfolios.

someone who has always been vision focused, who has always had big ideas and small resources, I became obsessed with this industry.

No matter how you make a living or what your skill set is, you have to know what value you bring, place a price on your time and talent, and then accept nothing less.

no matter what you do for a living or where you are in your career, you deserve to walk through the door of any room you want to be in.

I pattern match for grit, determination, and tenacity, and they can come in a whole range of different guises.

A start-up may begin with one person’s idea, but it can expand past the idea phase only with the help of other people.

I’d always had ideas, I’d always felt like an entrepreneur, but my ideas either hadn’t led anywhere or hadn’t brought me success.
