Maybe next time it can be an Australian but this is a global game. It's not about nationality, it's about talent and finding somebody with the right experience.
I don't work for nothing. I'm entitled to get paid.
I learned to value the small transactions as well as the large.
So many times I wanted to go to Auschwitz, but I couldn't take up the courage to go there.
What is it to enjoy life? Sit at the beach? No. What it is is that you have to do something, you have be productive, make a contribution to the society, to the family, to yourself.
The human being is very resourceful. When you fight for survival, you don't think much; you just do. If you think too much, you sink.
I work all the time; whatever I do, I do it, and I don't necessarily look at it as work. You could say the Auschwitz project was work, or the Lowy Institute is work, or Westfield is work, or the football is work. It is life.
