New York State is upside down and backwards high taxes and low performance. The New York State government was at one time a national model. Now unfortunately it's a national disgrace. Sometimes the corruption in Albany could even make Boss Tweed blush.

It is unfortunate that Americans are no longer aware of what the constitution says and what their rights are. Because of that we are often very passive about what happens when the government violates those rights.

Unfortunately President Obama's failed policies of new regulations higher taxes and Obamacare and his anti-business rhetoric have hit Hispanics especially hard. Big government really hurts those who are trying to make it.

I believe there is something out there watching us. Unfortunately it's the government.

Life takes its path and sometimes there are people to blame. Of course there are bad people in this world. Good bad it happens unfortunately. But in a way I think if there was more focus on the good more good would happen.

Like every other good thing in this world leisure and culture have to be paid for. Fortunately however it is not the leisured and the cultured who have to pay.

Those disputing contradicting and confuting people are generally unfortunate in their affairs. They get victory sometimes but they never get good will which would be of more use to them.

I'm already the most fortunate girl in the world so I have zero expectations for what the future will bring.

Nobody ever chooses the already unfortunate as objects of his loyal friendship.

Those who insist on having hostilities with us kill and destroy the option of friendship with us in the future which is unfortunate because it is clear the future belongs to Iran and that enmities will be fruitless.

Fortunately somewhere between chance and mystery lies imagination the only thing that protects our freedom despite the fact that people keep trying to reduce it or kill it off altogether.

Freedom of speech is always under attack by Fascist mentality which exists in all parts of the world unfortunately.

I'm very proud of my Nigerian heritage. I wasn't fortunate enough to be raised in a heavy Nigerian environment because my parents were always working. My father was with D.C. Cabs and my mother worked in fast food and was a nurse.

Especially for me growing up in such a small town in the middle of nowhere the desire to be away was incredible. I wanted to see new lands meet new people from the city and meet people that were in much less fortunate situations than I was so that I could be more appreciative of my present. At least I had food on the table.

It is great to add some glamour to the food industry like television shows have done for the food world and inspiring people to work in the industry. The flip side of that is unfortunately people think that after they get their qualifications they get their invitation to compete on 'Top Chef.'

Unfortunately money in politics is an insidious thing - and a loophole in our campaign finance system was taken advantage of with money going to existing or new 527 groups with the sole purpose of influencing the election.

In the company of the accomplished people hope it will rub off on themselves in the company of the misfortunate they fear it!
