"There is a spiritual aspect to our lives - when we give, we receive-when a business does something good for somebody, that somebody feels good about them!"
"Without question, the balance of power on the planet today lies in the hands of business. Corporations rival governments in wealth, influence, and power. Indeed, business all too often pulls the strings of government. Competing institutions-religion, the press, even the military-play subordinate roles in much of the world today. If a values-driven approach to business can begin to redirect this vast power toward more constructive ends than the simple accumulation of wealth, the human race and Planet Earth will have a fighting chance."
"Never trust a skinny ice cream man."
"Business is the most powerful force in society. It has the highest potential for solving social problems.

Businesses could no longer say it was impossible."
"I don't believe that just because one person is born on one side of some imaginary line and another person is born on the other side means that a lot of people should be getting screwed through no fault of their own."
