What you and i need to do is learn to forget our differences. when we come together, we don't come together as baptists or methodists. you don't catch hell 'cause you're a baptist, and you don't catch hell 'cause you're a methodist... you don't catch hell because you're a democrat or a republican. you don't catch hell because you're a mason or an elk. and you sure don't catch hell 'cause you're an american; 'cause if you was an american, you wouldn't catch no hell. you catch hell 'cause you're a black man. you catch hell, all of us catch hell, for the same reason.

The most important job of the entrepreneur begins before there is a business or employees. the job of an entrepreneur is to design a business that can grow, employ many people, add value to its customers, be a responsible corporate citizen, bring prosperity to all those that work on the business, be charitable, and eventually no longer need the entrepreneur. before there is a business, a successful entrepreneur is designing this type of business in his or her mind's eye. according my rich dad, this is the job of a true entrepreneur.

Entrepreneurs are all a little crazy. there is a fine line between an entrepreneur and a crazy person. crazy people see and feel things that others don't. an entrepreneur's dream is often a kind of madness, and it is almost as isolating. what differentiates the entrepreneur from the crazy person is that the former gets other people to believe in his vision.

Early bird oh, if you’re a bird, be an early bird and catch the worm for your breakfast plate. if you’re a bird, be an early bird— but if you’re a worm, sleep late.

I'm very particular about who i sleep with.
Sleep Particular
I have a daughter who, when younger, possessed no barrier between her emotional self and the outside world. her emotional insides spilled out all over, and, especially when i was sleep-deprived and probably a little paranoid, this really threatened me. it was as if she were embodying and expressing the insecurities and freaked-outedness i never express, and which i've learned over the years to keep hidden.
Daughter Sleep Emotional
There was a good deal to be said, hilary decided, for middle age and infirmity. the years in which one demanded much of life were left behind, together with the bitterness of not getting what one wanted. one's values, too, were altered. gifts that once one took for granted, sunshine and birdsong, freedom from pain, sleep and one's daily bread, seemed now so extraordinarily precious.
Pain Sleep Sunshine
When we were not shooting [the hangover] we were sleeping, so pretty much every waking moment we spent together. and, you know, bradley [cooper], zach [galifianakis] and i were acquaintances before the movie started but we became good friends very quickly and spent so much time together that it was just inevitable we were either going to really hate each other or really like each other. thank god it turned out to be the latter.
