I'm less concerned about whether being a good corporate citizen burnishes a company's reputation. That's just an added benefit. I believe it's a responsibility, and there is no negotiating on responsibilities.

I believe in Wendel Clark. We want Wendel to be a prime-time player.

I want to stop transforming and just start being.

In my conscience, I believe that my heart has been so oft on fire that it is absolutely vitrified.

CEOs resign when the internal dynamics of the company and the external dynamics of the company actually come together to say it is appropriate. When the internal dynamics ask you whether you have a replacement. I think the transition from CEOships have also become cartoonish.

I believe in professionalism, less in politicians.
