People Have An Obligation To Live Up

Self-esteem Is Something You Have To Earn! The Only Way To Achieve Self-esteem Is To Work Hard. People Have An Obligation To Live Up To Their Potential.

I Always Look Old When I Work Because I Get So Upset And Tense That My Face Wrinkles Up Like A Prune, I Can't Stop It.

One Of My First Role Models Was Eugene Lang, A Wealthy Businessman Who Went Back To His Elementary School In East Harlem And Addressed The Sixth-grade Class. He Looked Out At That Sea Of Faces And Said, "if Any Of You Wants To Go To College, I Will Pay For It." When I Read That, I Burst Into Tears. It Was So Generous And So Basic. Not Fluffy. I Can't Understand Why We Scrimp On Education And Shortchange Our Kids. Why Would The Citizenry Do That To The People Who Are Going To Inherit Its Republic?

Do I Understand This Right? I'm Being Marked Down?

If Someone Were To Say Seriously, "i'm Divine," She'd Have To Be Locked Up. There Are Lots Of People In Mental Institutions Going Around Saying "i'm God." But Because I'm Funny About It, They Haven't Locked Me Up Yet. And I Don't Give Myself Airs, Either.
