Today, I don't believe in destiny. But I do believe in history...There's nothing more powerful than history.

As I tell my daughter, when you want something in life - no matter how impossible it seems - you need to fight for it.

Here's what I love: I love sitting at my desk, staring at the blank screen, and beginning that conversation with my imaginary friends.

Sharing education, sharing a book…that’s what changes the world.

Today, I don't believe in destiny. But I do believe in history...There's nothing more powerful than history.

History doesn't choose individual people. History chooses everyone. Every day. The only question is: How long will you ignore the call?

...as your father, my instinct is to protect you ... Other people will want to protect you too. But remember that you are not a damsel in distress, waiting for some prince to rescue you. Forget the prince. With your brain and your resourcefulness, you can rescue yourself.
