• I went through some tough times because if you're used to having a voice in contemporary culture and all of sudden, you don't have that voice, you don't have that outlet. I didn't appreciate that. I didn't understand how important that was to me. And all of a sudden, after investing all this time and energy, I had no identity. I didn't know who I was. I didn't know what I had to say. I didn't have a way to say it. It was very painful.

• There is always a critical job to be done. There is a sales door to be opened, a credit line to be established, a new important employee to be found, or a business technique to be learned.

Then venture capital becomes true creative capital - creating growth for the company and financial success for the investing organization

If we can continue to implement this plan, we will be able to save the country from further policy damages at the hand of President Obama and the Democrats.
