My parents always told me, 'Do what you love because that is what you will do well in.' They told me to make sure that you are happy.

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.

I find that the people who don't eat as much candy are really into heavy protein, like steak. I don't eat that.

I know everything about candy. Would you believe I even know where to find gumballs in the middle of Africa?

I believe dancing is the best stress reliever.

If these rich women from 5th Avenue spend a fortune on cashmere sweaters, they will come to my store to buy gummy bears.

My favorite place in the world is my dad's house in Montauk.

My husband is the cook at our house. I can make dessert and salad, but I stay away from meals. He makes amazing omelets, fish, and grilled vegetables like Brussels sprouts and cauliflower.

There's no denying that candy is comfort food and it's affordable.

The future is a direction, not a destination.

Do not say the land ahead does not exist, simply because you cannot see it.

You cannot expect to achieve new goals or move beyond your present circumstances unless you change.

I've lived my life again just telling it to you.

There's no problem so great it can't be solved. If it can't be solved, it's not a problem, it's reality.

The quality of your play never counts as much as the quality of your effort.

Every day be thankful for the nights that turn into mornings, friends that turn into family and dreams that turn into reality.

I didn't know every day I would be discussing the tone of my voice with my wife. I thought it was a marriage. Apparently, it's a musical.

When I look at public opinion, I'm not far out of the mainstream. I'm in it, in many respects. In some respects, public opinion goes beyond anything I've ever said.

I've always been sort of a closet sci-fi geek.
