Gotta love his laugh. He seems so genuine. Amazing person with an amazing story.

[@WhiteDervish]

This father was the mother of his 5-year old child. Keeping his kid on his lap he slept in the bathroom, ate in church. He knocked door to door to earn some money for two square meals and so forth... Nonetheless, he didn't stop preparing himself for becoming today's one of the most powerful catalysts. Hail Chris! you are awesome. The sentence I always remember from you is "Don't say anyone that you can't."

[@nfscsk]

not 5 year old. its really a 14 month old boy.

[@sourabhzirmite]

@@nfscsk yeah he admitted that thing in his interview and that's true

[@SahajKhetrapal]

I had the marvelous opportunity to hear Chris Gardner in person at The Ohio State University a few years ago. He was just as great in person as he is on this video. I wish I could talk to him for 20 minutes. What a wonderful man! What a exemplary father!!!!! He is such an inspiration to everyone!!! You CAN do what ever you set out to do and Chris proves that!!! Thank you for posting this and thank you, Chris for your dedication and persistence. Loved the movie too!

[@NightArrowsd1]

Thank you Mr Gardner. Peace from Brazil

[@diferrusa]

Sencillamente su ejemplo e fenomenal. Acá en Colombia tiene un admirador que se siente identificado con él, porque sé lo que tratar de llegar a la cima con sacrificio. Por eso, Dr, CHRIS usted es mi mentor y quisiera algun dia poder llegar tan lejos triunfando como usted.

Здраствуйте Крис Гарднер!!! Ваши история с мойм на равных местах . Мой начальство 13 лет ХОТЯТЬ МЕНЯ уволить с оаботы разными причинами. Если я не буду работать я с голоду УМРУ. Меня любимые способами выживать с работы . Все против меня как будто мир ПЕРЕВЕРНУЛЬСЯ 180 ГРАДУСОВ. Дом без ремонта 43 год . сильный и дождь и ветер будеть крыша упадут на голову. Одним словам живу кишлаке. Не замужем кто возметь не ГРОШИ на душе. Можете помочь или сделать благотворительность мне или что делать таком случае. Посеветуте мне. Как поступить таком случае

El mono chita es la cabeza principal de todos estos que se compone de un grupo incluyendo a Babilonia la moderna ,,el que es un lobo vestido de cordero y más alque se le a dedominado el grupo cómico (busco dineros) .

[@DebugGirl]

I think he missed and mouse slipped.

[@GodInspired]

@mw4205 ALL black men don't wear earrings!!! TRUST ME!!!

[@Gogomanism]

It's funny how universities like to promote successful people that either A. never been to college or B. Went there and dropped out. That's like marketing the competition's product.

[@Solingen1000]

Tells you what does and does not make success.

[@Prince-yi7my]

That would be true if they invited him to speak at their commencement. :p

[@rza139]

Prince Kumar Steve Jobs never graduated and he spoke at Stanford. They do it because they are trying to show the students that success can happen in many says.

[@Prince-yi7my]

Anthony King Sure they are, conveniently after selling their product. In my previous comment, I was just remembering what Bill Gates said when he spoke at Harvard.

[@tripledoer]

I bet my ass 95% of those guys were't even listening to Mr. Gardner...they were more busy shouting at every word he said...

[@MouseLeave]

Dice mamá que el perro huevero aunque le quemen la boca sigue comiendo huevos.

[@SixstikaiStvdios]

Hello, this is so fucking weird. My name is Chris gardner, no joke, I'd love to have lunch with ya so we can talk.

[@mw4205]

Why do all black men find the need to wear earrings?

[@calicoesblue4703]

Not all blackmen wear earrings, that is a overstatement.
