I don't think about when it's going to stop and what you do before it stops. You just keep moving.

I never had to worry about divestment because I never invested.

It's good to say, 'Look, I can't always be right, but my gut tells me this' - and then you confirm with your gut.

I have faith in the pendulum swinging. Right now it's so far against the wall that it can't go any farther; it's gonna start to swing back. That's my optimism. One of the cures is gonna be getting the American people to fully wake up. All the American people, particularly young people, because they're gonna inherit this earth; they're gonna inherit what we're doing.

That's another thing that's depressing: certain attitudes in Congress. They assume that you're dumb; they can take advantage of you being dumb. I find that offensive. It insults our intelligence. They're playing us for dumb and they're being dumb in doing it. But I believe that's gonna change. I think those people, the McConnells, are not helping us at all. They're taking us backward in time.

I did not, like my children and people today, grow up with television as part of my life.

Any time I saw people treated unfairly because of race, creed, whatever - it struck a nerve.
