You can design and create, and build the most wonderful place in the world. But it takes people to make the dream a reality.
No matter what happens in life, be good to people. Being good to people is a wonderful legacy to leave behind.
All the people like us are we, and everyone else is They.
I know black people love the idea that we finally have a beautiful, good-looking black president. But if he is doing awful things to us, we should wake up.
Successful people have a social responsibility to make the world a better place and not just take from it.
Animals, they are one of the most beautiful gifts we have and, you know, if there are people that have compassion, there are very few people that put their money into animal rescue organizations. And if there is someone that has that passion, animals need all the help they can get.

A lot of people are crazy, cruel and negative. They got a little too much time on their hands to discuss everybody else. I have a limited amount of energy to blow in a day.
