The biggest impact my father had on my life was teaching the importance of literacy.

Learning to read is probably the most difficult and revolutionary thing that happens to the human brain and if you don't believe that, watch an illiterate adult try to do it.

The airplane has had a big impact on my life.

Why is teaching the most important of all the professions? Because without it; no other professions are possible.

Tennis has had a very positive impact on my life.

I realized so much of my life hasn't been in a well-lit room, and I realized the importance of documenting my experiences as a way to memorialize them.
