3. What are some of your favorite inspirational quotes?

"Life is 10 percent what happens to you and 90 percent how you respond to it." – Lou Holtz
"There is a special place in hell for women who don't help other women." – Madeleine Albright
In my discipline of marketing, one of my favorite quotes is: "The bait needs to be appealing to the fish not the fisherman." – Unknown

4. What is the best movie you've seen lately and why did you enjoy it?

Lee Daniels' The Butler. The film conjured up so many emotions. Forest Whitaker tugged at our hearts in his role as Cecil Gaines serving eight presidents during his 34-year tenure as a butler at the White House. Throughout the movie, in a realistic depiction, we were reminded of major historical events such as the Civil Rights Movement, the Voting Rights Movement, Vietnam, and other events which affected this man's life, family, and American society. Outstanding!
