"If you just do the right thing day in and day out, and you just don't waver from that, you will be amazed at what can happen." - Dan Uyemura

"We do the right thing. We help first. We're not trying to be extractionary. We're not trying to take, you know, blindside people or, you know, take them for revenue. We provide the value. And if we do that well, we'll get paid in return." - Dan Uyemura
