QUOTES BY Jack Ma

No matter what one does, regardless of failure or success, the experience is a form of success in itself.

"I think U.S. and Chinese businesses need a common language and dialogue."

"China is still the fastest growing economy in the world, but we need to learn how to use money in a better way, and it's about quality, not quantity."

"It's impossible for China to keep 10 to 15% growth annually. The economy needed to slow down, and we have to learn to slow down."

"Consumption is still going up on Alibaba. This is because when the economy goes down people look online to Alibaba to buy cheaper things."

"People say, 'Well you know the economy's bad, so China consumption will be low. No, totally different. You Americans love to spend tomorrow's money, and other people's money maybe... We Chinese love to save money."

"When I graduated from university I tried to buy a beeper, and it cost me $250. My pay at the time was $10 a month."

"Every technological revolution takes about 50 years."

"IBM, Microsoft, the profit they made was larger than the top four banks in China put together... But where did the money go?"

"Helping doing business easier, we choose the name Alibaba because it is a global company. It is founded in China, but it was created for the world."

"Our focused customers are small business and young people. We did a great job in China. How can we help those young people in India, in Pakistan, in Africa. If they can use in the same ways."
