If you're a good numbers person, you're a bad language person.

Believe in better is one of the most powerful words you can use in the business community.

I have seen how effective language attached to policies that are mainstream and delivered by people who are passionate and effective can change the course of history.

It's all emotion. But there's nothing wrong with emotion. When we are in love, we are not rational; we are emotional. When we are on vacation, we are not rational; we are emotional.

I had nothing to do with death panels. I thought it was a horrible phrase about end of life. I didn't think it was accurate, and I was - I've always been opposed to it. The reason why I stood behind that phrase "death tax" for so many years is because the only time that you could pay that tax, the only time, is on the death of a relative. And that's what makes it a death tax. You have to be accurate.
