I like to talk about my obsession with french fries because I don't want people to think that 'Let's Move' is about complete utter deprivation. It's about moderation and real-life changes and ideas that really work for families.

It sometimes makes people feel better about themselves you know to put other people down or make fun of them or maybe make mockery of their work and that doesn't make me feel good at all.

When I was younger I probably didn't understand something basic about tact but I think it kept faint-hearted people at arm's distance and that's not such a bad thing because life is short and I know the kind of people I want to work with.

The bottom line is when people are crystal clear about the most important priorities of the organization and team they work with and prioritized their work around those top priorities not only are they many times more productive they discover they have the time they need to have a whole life.

People who make the choice to study work hard or do whatever they endeavor is to give it the max on themselves to reach to the top level. And you have the people who get envy and jealous yet are not willing to put that work in and they want to get the same praise.

We've got gays working there. If they can demonstrate long-term relationships we make same-sex benefits available just as we do with common-law marriages. Gays are productive people. Some fly airplanes some work in breweries.

It's a lot easier to do good work when you have good words to say and work with good people.

We treat our people like royalty. If you honor and serve the people who work for you they will honor and serve you.

You should never have to say hello or goodbye. Even at work sometimes and I know this is very unpopular is that if I'm going to work every single day I don't think you should have to hug people hello every single day when you come to work. I saw you Monday!

People of genius do not excel in any profession because they work in it they work in it because they excel.
