Tweetable Quotes

"Every day should be a day of self-improvement for all of us. Every day being open up to possibilities is a day for self-improvement."
"If you don't prepare, you're not going to get the best out of your guests. If the guest is constantly asked a question in other interviews, you don't want to ask the same thing, you want to ask something different."
"New York City is made up of little neighborhoods and each few block radius is a very different feel than the next few block radius. And where I live, for example... I pass by the bodega owner that I wave to, I pass by the guys that you know in the barbershop, I pass by the doorman. We all know each other right, because we see each other every day."
