What I'm trying to do is get this message out about self-empowerment, entrepreneurial spirit and true Americanism - the way we were when we changed the world, when Edison was alone, failing his 2,000th time on the lightbulb.

When I turned 30, I knew my life was at a crossroads. It was either over, or I was going to restart.

By the time I was 30, nobody would work with me. I was friendless, I was hopeless, I was suicidal, lost my family - I mean, it was bad. Bottomed out, didn't know what I was going to do. I actually thought I was going to be a chef - go to work in a kitchen someplace.

I want you to understand clearly, I am not a journalist - be very clear on that. I am an opinion maker.

I feel like the world of Blade Runner makes more sense than this one.

Every time somebody new gets the Ebola virus, it mutates.

Defeat anger, stop using it as a shield against truth, and you will find the compassion you need to forgive the people you love.
