I love Champagne and I love to drink it out of any kind of beautiful glass.

My dream... was to be an eclectic knowledge-gathering person.
It is within everyone's grasp to be a CEO.
Don't be embarrassed by your achievements. Being an overarchiever is nothing despicable. It is only admirable. Never lower your standards.
Our families and our homes are the center of American life, Everything we do is to make those homes-and the lives in them-more beautiful, more comfortable, more functional and more full of life and light and joy for those we love.
