"Jews are just like everyone else, only more so."

-- Lionel Blue

“Being on a set where the director has lost control is just sickening. No one goes the extra mile, theres a lot of eye-rolling... it just breeds inertia. If a director is in control, the crew follow their leader. But the second anyone senses the directors are not sure, people just swoop in.”
“I prefer to underwrite. Simple, clear as a country creek.”
“In the draft plan, we're looking at recycling 20 percent of our garbage by 2010.”
“The individual incentive not to commit crime on Wall Street now is almost zero.”
“I think it's very important to know what you want to do next versus just leave it up to chance, really position yourself in the right footings to get to where you want to be.”
“I'm exhausted from not talking.”
“Were all brought up to believe that the best players show up in the biggest games, and what bigger game than the Super Bowl? Ive just been blessed and very lucky to have two of my best games on that stage.”
“Even imperfection itself may have its ideal or perfect state.”
