"The ten dollar, founding father without a father, got a farther by working a lot harder, by being a lot smarter, by being a self starter, by fourteen they placed him in charge of a trading charter."
"And every day while slaves were being slaughtered and carted away across the plains he struggled and kept his guard up; inside he was longing for something to be a part of the brother was ready to beg, steal, borrow, or barter."
