Candy is childhood, the best and bright moments you wish could have lasted forever.

When I think of flavours, I think colour, so lemon should be yellow and orange is orange.

My parents screened 'Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory' for my 6th birthday, and I became fascinated by the idea of living in a candy land with chocolate rivers and lollipop trees.

No matter where I go or what title I may achieve, I will always be the son of exiles.

As an educator, I think educators should meet the people wherever they are. Don't even ask them to come half-way. Find them where they are, and sit on a couch with them.

Where the sky begins, the horizon ends, despite the best intentions.
