Quotes by Gregg Hurwitz  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“A guy can love a million women. But a man, a man loves one woman a million ways.”
Gregg Hurwitz, Orphan X

“Respect for women is essential,” Jack tells him. “Women’s rights and economic development within a country are highly correlated. Treating women properly is not just a moral position—which it is—or an American value—which it is. It’s a strategic imperative, and you will always, always lead by example in this regard.”
Gregg Hurwitz, Orphan X

“Pursue what is meaningful, not what is expedient.”
Gregg Hurwitz, Orphan X
