To get things done, you have to get people together.

When you stand up there and do a press conference, it's a very preoccupied moment. You're standing in front of cameras; people are watching you; it's not so easy to be at ease.

People have said I can come off a little trial-lawyerish. I tell people I never actually became a lawyer, but I play one at City Hall.

I just want people to know you can get through stuff. I hope people can see that in what my life has been and where it is going.
