Some of the things that I have been able to accomplish in life might seem unbelievable to others, but with God's help and guidance, I managed to survive, and only a daredevil can accomplish.

I was born in the segregated south, but it did not stop me from being ambitious and striving to be the best that I could be.

There was always a feeling that somewhere, someday, I would have opportunities to show the world what I could do and encourage others to not give up and not give in.
