Quotes: “What is Oracle? A bunch of people. And all of our products were just ideas in the heads of those people — ideas that people typed into a computer, tested, and that turned out to be the best idea for a database or for a programming language.” | “It’s surreal to think that I own this beautiful island. It doesn’t feel like anyone can own Lanai. What it feels like to me is this really cool 21st-century engineering project, where I get to work with the people of Lanai to create a prosperous and sustainable Eden in the Pacific.”
