Kofi AnnanAt that time when I was struggling with being successful in a financial way, people would say, "You should be very happy.

William J. ClintonI learned [playing Chuck Berry] that there's something to be said for the courage of conviction, that sense of belief, being bold enough to believe in your vision. And there's a quote that really fits his particular energy. It says - they say don't go where the path may lead, but go where there's no path and leave a trail.
