And if you don't give up, hopefully you'll find a way. And that's the message I take around the world, particularly in disadvantaged communities. And I wish mom was alive. And maybe she's listening.

And then there was no money left, so she couldn't go to college. So she became a secretary. So she had a good life, but not the life that she probably would have dreamed of. So I was lucky. My dream came true.

Parents need to be supportive. You know, okay, so you're a little boy of three. I'm going to be an engine driver. Oh, don't be silly. Why not say, wow, you'll be a fabulous engine driver, the best engine driver, because you know they won't be an engine driver.
