• I think I meant that, given the circumstances of my childhood, I had the illusion that it's easier to be alone. To have your relationships be casual and also to pose as a solitary person, because it was more romantic. You know, I was raised on the idea of the ramblin' man and the loner.

• Some of the companies we helped start are names you know.

We started an early childhood learning center called Bright Horizons that First Lady Michelle Obama rightly praised.

• What might be taken for a precocious genius is the genius of childhood. When the child grows up, it disappears without a trace. It may happen that this boy will become a real painter some day, or even a great painter. But then he will have to begin everything again, from zero.
  ~ Pablo Picasso ~
• Childhood friends are holy trustworthy !
