Never trust cynics, as they excuse their own bad deeds by telling themselves everyone does it.

Elevator music is underrated.

I read books and talked to people. I mean that’s kind of how one learns anything. There’s lots of great books out there & lots of smart people.

Persistence is very important. You should not give up unless you are forced to give up.

For my part, I will never give up, and I mean never.

When I was in college, I wanted to be involved in things that would change the world.
