It also reveals a lot of humility in their intellectual properties and that they were all decisive in becoming what they are today:

More than retiring, I’m thinking about the days I’m here. These days you have to think about things over a five-year period, so I think about who I can pass things on to if something happens. I’m really grateful that there’s so much energy around the things I’ve worked on. These are things that have already been spread around the world… while some were cultivated by others, other people created them and helped them grow, so, in that sense, I don’t feel much ownership over them anymore.
