I'm always on the lookout for those good, simple solutions to everyday problems.

The last place I would ever want to go is prison.

Many of my executives have worked with me since the beginning. I can be fair and decisive and encouraging as well as demanding.

I am not a rock star or a movie star; I'm a businessperson. I definitely know who my friends are. I'm much more open and trusting than, say, my daughter is.

I support Alice Waters in her desire that there be a vegetable garden at the White House. I don't think they should rip up the Rose Garden, because that's something that I love. They should probably dig up another patch and grow some vegetables there.

Life is too complicated not to be orderly.

Our passion is and should always be to make life better.
