[22:21] - “I was already (profiting) and I haven’t yet written word one! And we did that five times.”

[25:01] - “I’m just giving books away to everybody. Because you never know whose hands it will get into.”

[28:09] - “Even when I was a medium-level speaker, I was getting over $5,000 per speech. I don’t care how many books I give away. I will trade $500 (in book printing costs) for $5,000 every day of the week.”
