Quotable Quotes:
"I learned to pace myself, not to panic, and stay calm in the face of hundreds of customers."
"I didn't want to be 50 years old and tell people that I worked for Burger King."
"I didn't know what I was doing. I didn't know how to cook chicken. I didn't even like chicken. But I told myself I was going to do this, and I was going to stick with it no matter what. I made a commitment."
