“Immigrants believe in things before they can see them, they create something from nothing.”
“Gravitas is not a state of being, it’s a way in which we can live life. Life doesn’t get easier, we have to get stronger.”
“So much of the time we use demography as a way to connect with others and I think we should use values and stories as a way to do that.”
“To be truly confident, it’s an approach, not a state of being.”
