　　他把一个创新的企业家描述为总是着眼于未来的人:

　　"Being innovative means you look at today from a viewpoint of tomorrow. We need to look at today’s China from a viewpoint of the world, and look at ourselves from the viewpoint of those outside this industry. When you think this way, you will do things in a different way," Ma noted.

　　尽管取得了巨大成功，马云称其保持冷静，仍然坚持自己的梦想：

　　"It’s important to retain a ’simple’ and ’naive’ outlook for the world. If a man still maintains his ’simplicity’ and ’naivety’ when he turns 100, I think he will be a very noble old man. I hope we can all hold on to a simple mindset and stick to our dreams, because if we lose our dreams, everything we strive for will become pointless and we will only become money-making machines. "

　　“保持一个‘简单’和‘天真’的世界观很重要。如果一个人在100岁的时候仍然保持着‘简单’和‘天真’，我认为他会是一位非常高尚的老人。我希望我们都能坚持一个简单的心态，坚持我们的梦想，因为如果我们失去了梦想，我们所追求的一切将变得毫无意义，我们只会变成赚钱的机器。”
