In my profession it isn’t a question of telling good literature from bad. Really good literature is seldom appreciated in its own day.

I’ll be dead myself then. Successful incompetents are what I need.

I think of myself as a human being first and foremost, and secondly as a person whose profession is acting. If people want to make that into something more or less, that's up to them.
Im my profession you have to mystify the enemy.
Many think of management as cutting deals and laying people off and hiring people and buying and selling companies. That's not management, that's deal making. Management is the opportunity to help people become better people. Practiced that way, it's a magnificent profession
