| “ | As much as you all want me to be part of your team, that's never going to happen. I'm always going to be a father first. And one day, Zoom is gonna make me choose between you and my daughter, and every time, unblinkingly, unflinchingly, I would choose my daughter. I will betray you. That's binary thinking. It doesn't have to be either/or. Life is either/or. Yes/no, black/white, love/hate. From the dawn of time to this moment right now. |
