Quote

My dad was an entrepreneurial businessman, and maybe I got some of his ability.

My father was so much more than an accomplished businessman.

My dad was a bartender. My mom was a cashier, a maid and a stock clerk at K-Mart. They never made it big. They were never rich. And yet they were successful. Because just a few decades removed from hopelessness, they made possible for us all the things that had been impossible for them.

My father was a successful entrepreneur.

My father was a businessman. We had discussions about honesty and dishonesty.

I thought I wanted to be a lawyer and was going through this growth phase.

My father was a banker, but he was an independent spirit. He was a very good pianist and very much into music.

My father still is a lawyer, and my mom was a teacher and then later a career counselor.

I was the only child, and I know my father had certain thoughts about me. He was a lawyer and extremely literary, but he would have been much happier if I had wanted to be a lawyer, a scientist, an engineer. But what I wanted to do was read.
