Don't worry about your physical shortcomings. I am no Greek god. Don't get too much sleep and don't tell anybody your troubles. Appearances count: Get a sun lamp to keep you looking as though you have just come back from somewhere expensive: maintain an elegant address even if you have to live in the attic. Never nickel when short of cash. Borrow big, but always repay promptly.

I hate the opera. I think I must have a tin ear. No matter how hard I concentrate it still sounds like a bunch of Italian chefs screaming risotto recipes at each other.

Get a sun lamp to keep you looking as if you have just come back from somewhere expensive.

It is during our darkest moments that we must focus to see the light.

The only rule is there are no rules.

To be successful, you must act big, think big and talk big.

We must free ourselves of the hope that the sea will ever rest. We must learn to sail in high winds.
