Quotes:

"If you want to be successful in life, you gotta work hard. I didn't know how hard, so I just worked really effing hard and just went for it." - Dustin Serviss

"Once someone has a foundation, it's a lot easier to build and replicate and duplicate and build up from a base. It's quite hard to mobilize and get the momentum if you're all trying to do something bigger than you should be, and it seems daunting." - Dustin Serviss
