One of the downsides of being famous is that folks pay far more attention to you than they should. American celebrities are constantly under surveillance, and every word they say is subject to scrutiny. So, be careful what you wish for if you desire fame. No human being should be a goldfish.
Parrots make great pets. They have more personality than goldfish.
The average human attention span was 12 seconds in 2000 and 8 seconds in 2013. A drop of 33%. The scary part is that the attention span of a goldfish was 9 seconds, almost 13% more than us humans. That's why it's getting tougher by the day to get people to turn the page. Maybe we writers ought to try writing for goldfish!
No one at Goldman Sachs gets paid out of his or her own P&L. It matters how your business is doing, but it matters more how the firm as a whole is doing.
The reason why the Democratic Party fell from grace is because they become nothing more than elitist. That was it. Goldman Sachs - that's who they were.
I've nothing against Goldman Sachs. But Goldman Sachs isn't an investment bank. Goldman Sachs is a hedge fund. It's bigger than any hedge fund. It's more leveraged, to the power of three or five, than any hedge fund.
The income tax has made liars out of more Americans than golf.
I can't hit a ball more than 200 yards. I have no butt. You need a butt if you're going to hit a golf ball.
When I first left the Eagles, I said, 'That's it. I'm going to play golf.' After 10 days, it was like... there has to be more to life! I can still swing a golf club, and don't forget, Les Paul played until he literally passed away.
I'm from Southern California, so I feel much more comfortable with a golf club in my hand than I do a weapon.
We raised almost 2 million dollars at the last golf tournament that can be used for minority scholarships and Junior Golf programs. The payoff for the work we do is so much more valuable than the work we actually do for it.
If you take my entire golfing life, my favorites are the older courses, the more traditional and the more authentic.
Less is only more where more is no good.
Over the years, I have realized that there's more to a film's fate than just good acting and a solid script. It needs to be marketed well. It's the package that sells - the songs, action, actors, etc.
There has got to be more to life than being a really, really, ridiculously good actor.
More and more good actors are now transmigrating into the videogame space and playing roles there because it's where my generation of kids get stories from.
To profit from good advice requires more wisdom than to give it.
A good scare is worth more to a man than good advice.
The more perfect a thing is, the more susceptible to good and bad treatment it is.
There is no more sombre enemy of good art than the pram in the hall.
