QUOTES:
“If you grow up in an extremely wealthy family, if your father is worth $10-billion dollars, you might not have the drive to do the kind of things you need to do to win a Nobel Prize or a Pulitzer Prize or something else. If you grow up in a modest family, you know if you’re going to get anywhere in life, you’ve got to do it on your own.” [6:33]
“You can’t be insecure. If you’re insecure, you surround yourself with people that are not that good, and great people surround themselves with people that are smarter than them.” [36:54]
“…you have to have a vision of where you want to go, you have to persist in it, you have to be willing to overcome failures, and not be afraid of making a mistake.” [49:16]

I’ve driven for David. He’s even as talkative in person in The Limo as we drove from Boston to Cambridge... Such a pleasure... Shalom David!

FROM THE WAY HE SPEAK , DAVID HAVE A FIRM GRASP OF HISTORY. A TRULY LEARNED MAN.
-
Listening to David is refreshing.
-
The amount of research Tom does on his guests is commendable!
-
I worked with David in the Carter White House (as an EA). He was the nicest guy in the building and always a perfect gentleman.
-
As a black woman, I was getting angry hearing him praise Lincoln. But, then he acknowledged the racial truths & his own priviledge. I am astounded at his balanced views. It seems so few rich whites can admit what he did. Quite a refreshing & shocking interview. Can't wait to look up his book.
