I rode all around Hollywood listening to Donna Summer, looking out the window - all by myself - just going, 'I'm number one!' It's a pretty extraordinary feeling.

When we go somewhere in New York, I'm known as Mr. Savini.

When I started out, I was absolutely awful, I had no voice, I didn't have a lot of stage presence and most of the interpretive intensity that I brought to the experience was actually terror.

You reach a certain point in your life where they things you do and say do make a difference.

Imagine the world of mobile based on Nokia and Motorola if Apple had not been restarted by a missionary entrepreneur named Steve Jobs who cared more for his vision than being tactical and financial.

You can tell a lot about a man's character by watching him win or lose money.

You can spend a lot of money on education, but if you don't spend it wisely, on improving the quality of instruction, you won't get higher student outcomes.

It was an honor and privilege to arrive to this country 16 years ago with almost no money in my pocket. A lot has happened since then.
