I've always wanted to own and control the primary technology in everything we do.

I have been up against tough competition all my life. I wouldn't know how to get along without it.

It is no use saying, 'We are doing our best.' You have got to succeed in doing what is necessary.

In this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes.  

Papa, potatoes, poultry, prunes and prisms, are all very good words for the lips.

As an attorney, I could be rather flamboyant in court. I did not act as though I were a black man in a white man's court, but as if everyone else - white and black - was a guest in my court. When trying a case, I often made sweeping gestures and used high-flown language.

We keep moving forward, opening new doors, and doing new things, because we are curious and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.

Sure I am of this, that you have only to endure to conquer.
