Quotes from Sam:
The higher you go, the greater pain you have to handle.
You will grow only through the threshold of your pain.
To go higher, you have to be willing to invest in the ladder holders.
Hire slowly, fire quickly.
The best time to fire somebody is the first time it goes through your mind.
