Usually when you're working is when people want you to work. They don't want you as much when you're not working. That's the frustrating nature of our business.

One thing I think kids need to do is more chores, and take care of their own rooms. Responsibilities are really important to start them with. If they have animals, they have to feed them and care for them. That's the only way I think I could do it.

The desire to take medicine is perhaps the greatest feature which distinguishes man from animals.
