It is hope in this wider sense which enabled
my father to build, from scratch, one of

dream with your eyes wide open".

The change we need is fixing this broken
economy from the bottom up.. not tax breaks
for the wealthy and huge corporations that
ship U.S. jobs overseas. We need to focus

not an unending commitment in Iraq.

I believe the true road to preeminent success
in any line is to make yourself master in
that line. I have no faith in the policy
of scattering one's resources, and in my
experience I have rarely if ever met a man
who achieved preeminence in money making..
certainly never one in manufacturing.. who
was interested in many concerns.

best performers across virtually every field

I'm convinced that we can write and live
our own scripts more than most people will
acknowledge. I also know the price that
must be paid. It's a real struggle to do

It involves living a life of integrity,
starting with making and keeping promises,
until the whole human personality the senses,
the thinking, the feeling, and the intuition
are ultimately integrated and harmonized.

I think women have proved themselves beyond
a shadow of doubt that they are as capable
and as confident in delivering results.
The "B" word.. babies or biology
is a complicated one. Because it doesn't
mean that women can't do the work, it means
that women have a point, a period in their
life of maybe.. depending on how many children
they have, of 5 to 10 years where they have
a lessened amount of availablity. And in
many many corporate settings you have to
be available for face time in the office
and travel. And when you make the choice
to have a kid you also make the choice to
be not available as much.

I have never left the company. I keep a
tiny residual salary to this day because

I'd rather be basically retired, due to
my family. (talking about his relationship
with Apple Inc)
