The foundation of leadership is your own moral compass. I think the best quality leaders really know where their moral compass is. They get it out when they are making decisions. It's their guide. But not only do you have to have a moral compass and take it out of your pocket, it has to have a true north.

If you start painting yourself into a corner, life starts shutting down. There is always hopefully a next.

In the '70s and '80s, the mentality of America was that everything was disposable. The notion of quality wasn't important.

Entrepreneurs, guys that start businesses, grow with them. It's more painful than it would appear.

There is always hopefully a next.

As an entrepreneur, you work out solutions.

I am really proud of the development of the people on my team as they grow in purpose; they like what they see in the mirror.
