Quote

When the phone started ringing too many times, I had to take it back to what I can handle. I take my chances on a job or a person as opposed to a situation. I don't like to have a situation placed over my head.

When I work, my first relationship with people is professional. There are people who want to be your friend right away. I say, We're not gonna be friends until we get this done.

We're born alone. We do need each other. It's lonely to really effectively live your life, and anyone you can get help from or give help to that's part of your obligation.
