IT Quote of the Week #2 – Larry Ellison
0Larry Ellison’s life is a wonderful technology story of building something great from nothing. Most people do not know that he founded Oracle with his own money and nearly lost it early on due to overextended sales practices. Of course, today, it is the cornerstone of most enterprise database setups. He is a business legend, a bold information age visionary, and an outspoken technologist and thus a worthy addition to our IT Thought of the Day Quote of the Week Series.
I like Information Age quotations. I find some of them very inspirational and like to carry a new one around about every week. I thought that i could share mine with you from time to time.
