Everything that I do in my life is geared towards my kids and their survival and giving them the best education that I can possibly give them and the best home that I can possibly give them.

I'm a homing pigeon. When I'm in Tallahassee, I give everything I have to being, hopefully, the best legislator I can be. When I'm home, I'm home. I try to not do legislative stuff. That brings a balance to life.

The only difference between a weed and a flower is survival skill.

You cannot give what you don't have. Life is for the living.

If the Army helped towards my tuition fees I would then give them four years of my life.

Coming from a family of preachers, the idea of giving back has been part of my life as long as I can remember.
