Only solitary men know the full joys of frienship. Others have their family; but to a solitary and an exile, his friends are everything.
One of the best lessons I learned early is that not everything in life is about you. It is about service. If you want trips and excessive gifts, then don't get into public service.
I'm off to race around the world - a race against time and two men. I know I can beat time. I hope I can beat the men.
