I heard Nixon speak. He was talking about free enterprise, getting the government off your back, lowering the taxes and strengthening the military. Listening to Nixon speak sounded more like a breath of fresh air. I said to my friend, I said, "What party is he?" My friend said, "He's a Republican." I said, "Then I am a Republican."

Don't be afraid of making decisions.

I set out to be the best and I am.

I think one thing that is extremely important is to connect with people in order to be successful and bring the people in so that they become your partners.

Global warming is one of those things, not like an earthquake where there's a big bang and you say, 'Oh, my God, this is really, has hit us.' It creeps up on you. ... Half a degree temperature difference from one year to the next, a little bit of rise of the ocean, a little bit of melting of the glaciers, and then all of a sudden it is too late to do something about it.

Stay hungry, stay healthy, be a gentleman, believe strongly in yourself and go beyond limitations.

We simply must do everything we can in our power to slow down global warming before it is too late. We can save our planet and also boost our economy at the same time.
