jobs fun best-job
I have talent at playing myself. I don't have a very broad range, but at playing myself I am a wizard. It's more than fun; it's the best job on Earth.
loss use way
I have always been very diversified, so I have never suffered a catastrophic loss. I spread my money around the way a large institutional investor does. I use different brokerage firms. I manage some of my accounts myself...
unique thinking people
I think, there are many people who are much smarter than I am, and many, many, many who are much harder-working than I am, but in terms of the range of my activities, they're unique.
thinking would-be good-things
I think a snob would be a person who thinks he is entitled; he has good things in his life and is entitled to them.
men white-man black
After all the black man has been through in this world, he can still often reach levels of spirituality the most pampered white man cannot touch. Maybe what he's been through is the reason why.
moving sleep car
I love sleeping in a moving car more than sleeping in bed.
israel years glee
Israel being condemned by the EU, which 66 years ago watched with glee as its Jews were being mass murdered. That is pretty rich.
men fields succeed
Men and women succeed because they find a field of endeavor that matches their interests and abilities.
home car trying
Yes, Americans can still get credit for cars and trucks and refrigerators, and those businesses are doing well. But just try to get a home loan now.
law rights done
We are not supposed to be all equal. Let's just forget that. We are supposed to have equal rights under law. If we do that, we have done enough.
seems ifs
I have to tell you I never in my life anticipated getting this old, this fast. It seems as if I were 25 just a few days ago.
crush children parenting
Screaming at children over their grades, especially to the point of the child's tears, is child abuse, pure and simple. It's not funny and it's not good parenting. It is a crushing, scarring, disastrous experience for the child. It isn't the least bit funny.
beautiful sleep america
It is so great to sleep in safe, glorious, beautiful America. I just cannot get over it.
sleep home night
Sleep more at night. If it's allowed at work or home, take a nap in the afternoon. You'll be amazed at how much better you'll feel.
