"Focusing your life solely on making a buck shows a certain poverty of ambition. It asks too little of yourself. Because it's only when you hitch your wagon to something larger than yourself that you realize your true potential."
Fact is the Boston bomber could not have succeeded if someone didn't build the pressure cooker, provide the nuts and bearings and explosives and put the garbage cans on the street to conceal them. The explosion was a societal effort and no one can or does achieve things like this alone.

If you were successful, somebody along the line gave you some help. There was a great teacher somewhere in your life. Somebody helped to create this unbelievable American system that we have that allowed you to thrive. Somebody invested in roads and bridges. If you've got a business—you didn't build that. Somebody else made that happen.
