Sherry Lansing quotes about
successful differences sticks
The major difference I've found between the highly successful and the least successful is that the highly successful stick to it. They have staying power. Everybody fails. Everybody takes his knocks, but the highly successful keep coming back.
retirement past two
I left Paramount at the ripe young age of sixty. A generation ago, that would have been retirement age. But my generation has more energy, more drive, and a greater life expectancy than any group of retirees before us. We are going to be here for two decades or more past 'retirement' age and we want to do something relevant in the so-called third act of our lives.
great hoping incredible support
When you have a great actor, you really want to support them and you want to support them with an incredible campaign. I am hoping for a lot of ties.
