You can have a table full of gourmet food, but the minute you put a box of Entenmann's doughnuts out, that's all people are gonna talk about.

The main thing I want to do is make people feel more connected and more active.

I need to start honing in on projects that I want to devote my time to and not put my energies into the unattainable ones.

You can't escape the puking sphinx.

Carry on! Carry on! Fight the good fight and true; Believe in you mission, greet life with a cheer.
