Quotes

  • You can't tell it all what is in your destiny line. But once as you continue to equip yourself, then I think whatever happens, you are as ready as the opportunity that comes your way.
  • With my lifestyle, people look up to you. So that's a part, that's a form of service for nation. So if it has to get to that aspect where we'd have to assume any political space, then I think that would be right at that time.
