While Their Service Is Ending, Our Responsibility

My Son Is Trying To Be A Sports Writer, And My Daughter Is A College Student. She Wants To Be A Comedy Writer, And She's At Film School. I Discouraged Both Of Them Early On From Getting Involved In Starbucks. I Didn't Think It Would Be Fair; Plus, They Didn't Have Any Interest Anyway.

Believe In Your Dreams And Dream Big. And Then After Youve Done That, Dream Bigger.

Grow With Discipline. Balance Intuition With Rigor. Innovate Around The Core. Don't Embrace The Status Quo.

We Will Never-and I Mean Never-turn Our Backs On Our Employees.

When You Start A Company, It's A Singular Focus. You Have The Wind At Your Back.
