Great sales people [don't] have the ability to feel sorry for themselves.

I sat down and collected all of our eleven sales for the past six months and I added them all together and divided by eleven. I then took that average and presented it as the average price for a Manhattan apartment. The media ate it up.

Taking chances almost always makes for happy endings.

I've never had a really creative idea sitting at my desk. All the big ideas that made a difference happened when I was playing outside.

Empathy for the people you're working with and being aware of their needs...that's the "big kahuna" in managing people.

Don't teach talent that isn't there.

I love myself. Anything that has my name I'm tickled to death.
