Property is intended to serve life and no matter how much we surround it with rights and respect it has no personal being. It is part of the earth man walks on. It is not man.

The man who has no inner-life is a slave to his surroundings.

I have been surrounded by some of the smartest brightest most caring lawyers by agents who are willing to risk their lives for others by support staff that are willing to work as hard as they can.

My philosophy of leadership is to surround myself with good people who have ability judgment and knowledge but above all a passion for service.

We live on an island surrounded by a sea of ignorance. As our island of knowledge grows so does the shore of our ignorance.

I think it's important to get your surroundings as well as yourself into a positive state - meaning surround yourself with positive people not the kind who are negative and jealous of everything you do.

Hope is a feeling that life and work have meaning. You either have it or you don't regardless of the state of the world that surrounds you.
