I had individuals in my life to help me make the right decisions because it wasn't about them accepting handouts. It was about them making the right decisions for me.

At least I'm going into the job with clean hands.

And for a very special group of people, we've provided their only job. I'm speaking of course of the disabled. They have stated they don't want a hand out just a hand. We are happy to give them one.

I was never given any hand-outs. I started at the bottom and was very good at finding people who knew more than me and learning from them.

Handouts are not going to end global poverty, but work - real work - just might.

I come from a very humble background. My father had to work really hard to become an assistant director. For a large part of his youth, he worked in a mill and took up odd jobs to make ends meet. We lived in a small room and could only afford a meal a day.

When I first immigrated to the United States, there were not many jobs that stood out. So I worked at a gas station, cleaning.

I worked at Sears as a salesperson when I was in college. Makes me nicer to folks to have to stand all day and be nice to picky people.

I don't run restaurants that are out of control. We are about establishing phenomenal footholdings with talent.

In order to keep pace with the influx of work I had to take on fresh hands.
