Challenges met are the scariest but are sometimes the most worthwhile.

The fact of the matter is: when you're doing a project, you try to make it better every moment. And a lot of people get frustrated. But I surrounded myself with a good team of people and I'm really proud of the work we've all done. All I can say is - I've learned this in my business - don't let the process frustrate you; focus on the end. Because the end is pretty wonderful. Just fight it out.

You better do your job and not lean on me to do it for you.

No matter how far society “progresses,” our thirst for community and connection will never diminish. Bars satisfy this need.

The biggest lesson I learned in the bar business is to focus on revenues. Dollars, not dimes.

If you had a dime for every excuse you made, I wouldn't have to be here right now.

I don't accept excuses, only solutions.
