moving
I travel a lot. I'm on the move.
sleep conditions
I have both sleep apnea and atrial fibrillation, which are both debilitating conditions.
mergers three ten
At Time Warner, I had ten percent of the stock after the merger. But when we merged with AOL, I was diluted down to three percent.
important looks defeat
Exposure to defeat is a very important thing. Anyone who doesn't look to get beaten is doing a disservice to himself.
and-love want love-one-another
I'm sure God, wherever he is, wants to see us get along with one another and love one another.
cancer guy trying
Hell, we spent $200 Billion to get a scared guy who needed a shave out of a fox-hole! And he may even die of prostate cancer before we even get a chance to try him, dammit!
bullshit limitless
I've got a virtually limitless supply of bullshit.
mouths opening
Where's the upside in opening your mouth?
men thinking names
I'm a millionaire, I guess, but I'm just a normal person and I like everybody, taxi drivers, whoever you are, to call me by my first name and talk to me on a man-to-man basis. I think the garbage collector is as important as the goddamned president.
sex mean people
If people get all the sex they can handle, they're so happy and content they just sit around and smile. I mean, you never feel aggressive just after you've gotten laid, right? Lots of sex for everybody, that's a solution to the world's problems.
lines fine stills
There's a fine line between being colorful and being an asshole, and I hope I'm still just colorful.
feet feelings say-anything
I'm a human being, just like everybody else. I'm up some days and down others. Some days, I just refuse comment. If I'm feeling a little down, I won't say anything. But if I'm really up, I'll let it all hang out. I do have a slight propensity to put my foot in my mouth.
jesus hippie healing
Jesus Christ would have been considered just another long-haired hippie freak if he hadn't been crucified. The folks weren't impressed with healing the sick, feeding the multitudes bread and fish or anything else, except maybe the walking on water. But when he got crucified, that gave him his big start.
people young
I see what keeps people young: work!
