One of my first role models was Eugene Lang, a wealthy businessman who went back to his elementary school in East Harlem and addressed the sixth-grade class. He looked out at that sea of faces and said, "If any of you wants to go to college, I will pay for it." When I read that, I burst into tears. It was so generous and so basic. Not fluffy. I can't understand why we scrimp on education and shortchange our kids. Why would the citizenry do that to the people who are going to inherit its republic?

I bear no grudges. I have a mind that retains nothing.

When you have a steady job you're more inspired to broaden yourself.

I've always said that people have unrealistic expectations.

Find your Light; They can't love you if they can't see you

Do I understand this right? I'm being marked down?

GOD is watching us, from a Distance.
