“If you truly believe in the potential of your company  to change the world for the better, there's no excuse for settling for an acquisition. An acquisition is the end  of a dream. Today's titans push the ideal of acquisition  because they're afraid of future competitors. Google knows that its biggest threat could come from two grad students, the Larry and Sergey of 2013. If you're an entrepreneur who's been seduced by the dream of acquisition, you're basically giving up before you even try. It's OK to sell your  company if you're honest about it: 'This didn't work out, so we're selling.'  But there's a dishonesty among many entrepreneurs. They say, 'Our mission  will continue' or 'Nothing will change.' In fact, the mission was lost, and  everything will change.”
