Leave your ego at the door every morning, and just do some truly great work. Few things will make you feel better than a job brilliantly done.

Be spectacularly great at what you do. Wear your passion on your sleeve and hold your heart in the palm of your hand. And work hard. Really hard.

For me, few things are more compelling than watching a great opera.

Few things are more important to our country's future than recruiting and keeping great teachers in our schools.

Exercising will make you look better, feel stronger, and fill you with boundless energy. Staying fit will even make you happier.

Leadership is not a popularity contest; it's about leaving your ego at the door. The name of the game is to lead without a title.
