\u201cA world and a job that actually does impact people\u2019s lives for the better.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat is caveated with, I hope we don\u2019t go back to some of the practices in the past, that Harry and I had to grow up with \u2014 I\u2019ll do everything I can to make sure we don\u2019t regress in that situation.\u201d<\/p>\n
