Bill MurrayI always want to say to people who want to be rich and famous: 'try being rich first'. See if that doesn't cover most of it.

You've gotta go out there and improvise and you've gotta be completely unafraid to die. You've got to be able to take a chance to die. And you have to die lots. You have to die all the time.
