I shall proceed from the simple to the complex. But in war more than in any other subject we must begin by looking at the nature of the whole; for here more than elsewhere the part and the whole must always be thought of together. ↗

I hope telling stories though 'Making a Difference' - as in my academic work and nonprofit work - will help me to live my grandmother's adage of 'Life is not about what happens to you, but about what you do with what happens to you.' ↗

Don't go on American Idol, I think you'll spend the rest of your life living it down and I think it's getting kinda scary, isn't it? ↗

I can walk through the front door of any factory and out the back and tell you if it's making money or not. I can just tell by the way it's being run and by the spirit of the workers. ↗

If I was still at school, I'd be looking at Britney Spears and dying to be her. ↗
