I think you have to see the high highs and the low lows to get to the core of what makes us tick as people.

You can't let the highs get too high and you can't let the lows get too low.

It's been a high-low year for me. The highest of highs, the lowest of lows.

Oprah was not somebody who was telling us what to do, she wasn't really teaching us like so many people we see today. With Oprah, she was learning and we were learning with her. And I think that's really was the seed that was planted for all of us to just hang in there with her.

The Census provides highs that are too low and lows that are too high. In effect, the Census income estimates artificially reduce the gap between the wealthiest and poorest Connecticut towns.
