I'm not apologizing to anybody for anything.

It's fool's gold if you are winning games and are not playing the right way.

When someone deeply listens to you, your barefeet are on the earth, and a beloved land that seemed distant, is now at home within you.

I am going into an unknown future, but I'm still all here, and still while there's life, there's hope.

We are committed and if we succeed we'll succeed magnificently, and if we fail it will be a magnificent failure. The magnificence is important.
