Take risks. Work hard. Make mistakes. Get up the next morning. And surround yourself with people who will cheer you on.”

“It's very fashionable to talk about human trafficking, in this fantastic A-C hall. It's very nice for discussion, discourse, making films and everything. But it is not nice to bring them to our homes. It's not nice to give them employment in our factories, our companies. It's not nice for our children to study with their children. There it ends. That's my biggest challenge.”

“Start where you are, use what you have.”
