Tweetable Quotes:

“There's no substitute for being a good person. People try to shortcut that process... Be a good person and great things will happen. I promise.” - Jerome Myers

“When you decide that you have to take care of you, you're going to defend you. And if you are more accountable to yourself, you keep the promises to yourself, then you can keep it for everybody else. Because at the end of the day, you are moving independent of the world, you're moving in your own world, and what the standard is in your world is higher than anything that the outside world could ask or beg of you.” - Jerome Myers
