“I think if there's any difference between me and a traditional CEO, it's that I've been unwilling to change myself or shape my personality around what's expected.”

“Once you have something so deeply infused in your culture and your brand, it would be very difficult to reverse that inertia if you wanted to.”

“I feel like clout is something that builds up on your teeth.”

“I tend to think that free-market conservative principles are the best ones for the CEO of a state.”

“When I was made CEO of Reynolds the first time, someone asked me what it was like to be a female CEO. But I said, 'I don't know what its like to be a male CEO, so I can't really answer that question.'”

“There are a lot of things about having money that are perceived to be cool but that aren't. Maybe if you're a CEO jerk who likes going coast to coast by himself in a G4, then that's fine. But that's not me. And it never will be.”
