Making money is certainly the one addiction I cannot shake.

I hear poets complaining: 'We face what our forebears did not face. We face TV. We face radio. We face this and that.'

No woman or girl is going to want to spend time looking at pretty dresses on the Internet. Vogue is going to be around for a long time to come.

I've always noted with some awe the reading habits of the Australian public. Australians read more newspapers and magazines per head of population than almost any other country in the world.

People who grow rich almost always improve their sex life. More people want to have sex with them. That's just the way human beings work. Money is power. Power is an aphrodisiac. Money did not make me happy. But it definitely improved my sex life.

I cannot abide being bored.

I have one talent, and that's figuring out what people want about two minutes before they know it themselves.
