If you're going to be at a job environment, you should love it. You shouldn't do it just for money. You should do it because you love it. And the money comes naturally.

Number one, I absolutely love making chocolate chip cookies. I mean, it's fun. It's exciting. Beyond the fact that I love making them, I love eating them.

The important thing is not being afraid to take a chance. Remember, the greatest failure is to not try. Once you find something you love to do, be the best at doing it.

When you're taking care of the customer, you can never do too much. And there is no wrong way... if it comes from the heart.

I've never felt like I was in the cookie business. I've always been in a feel good feeling business. My job is to sell joy. My job is to sell happiness. My job is to sell an experience.

Good enough never is. Set your standards so high that even the flaws are considered excellent.

A cookie store is a bad idea. Besides, the market research reports say America likes crispy cookies, not soft and chewy cookies like you make.

It's never too late - not now, not ever - for you to pursue your passion.

What I wanted was to be allowed to do the thing in the world that I did best - which I believed then and believe now is the greatest privilege there is. When I did that, success found me.

The greatest failure is not to try. Had I listened to all the people during the course of my life who said, "You can't. You'll fail. It won't work. You don't have...," I wouldn't be here today.

There are people out there who want to say yes. That gave me confidence to keep asking.

Our greatest fear as individuals & as a church should not be of failure, but of suceeding at things in life that dont really matter.

The future will be bright, if you play it right!

Never be focused on yourself.

I am a dreamer. Seriously, I'm living on another planet.

Every once in a while, you let a word or phrase out and you want to catch it and bring it back. You can't do that. It's gone, gone forever.

Secrets are the currency of intimacy

My wife will buy anything marked down. Last year she bought an escalator.

Suspicion is one of the morbid reactions by which an organism defends itself and seeks another equilibrium.

I think we're never fully protected, but I think we need to do everything we can to stop threats to us.

I am running for my Senate district in 2014 and looking forward hopefully to earning the confidence of my community once again and being reelected for that seat.
