Joint Session with ICC and Family AllianceState Issues and Planning

“Here's the strategy that I have used. It's taken me decades to learn it, and it has

worked: In the good years, work very hard to win everything that's possibly

winnable. In the bad years, work just as hard to keep your losses to a minimum. There are good times, and there are bad times. But you have to stay in the game.”
