In 1968, 'Liberty Magazine' had an article about George Wallace in which he stated he would suggest me as a possible vice-presidential candidate, along with other choices such as 'Happy' Chandler and General Curtis LeMay. However, I am not interested in any political office in the United States or anywhere, now or back in 1968.

I could see it wasn't going to be easy. I couldn't give a franchise to any old greasy spoon. And I knew the chicken had to be cooked the way I told them to cook it if it was going to be as popular as it could be.

I don't fear that a man will wear out as quickly as he will rust out.

I always hired widows with children, because they had to work and didn't have any foolishness about them.

No hours, nor amount of labor, nor amount of money would deter me from giving the best that there was in me.
