It's harder, but we're still finding oil in Oklahoma today. The bar has been raised on startup companies, but it can still be done.

The cost of living in sin would make a poor man out of Paul Getty.

If I keep getting letters or if I keep getting messages from people who are still taking strength from my story, who are still finding it difficult and struggling, then you know what, then I'll keep doing what I do.

Sydney Poitier, who said to Lester Maddox, Guess who's not coming to dinner? Never got a dinner!
I came to the realization that I started dating my now-wife junior year of college, before you actually went on a date. You didn't take girls from college out to dinner. I've never been on a date. I've never been on a date where I didn't know the end game. I've never casually dated someone. I've only been out to dinner with the woman who would eventually be my wife.
