I was a good liar as a child.
My dad and mom believed that you do what you have to do in private and don't make a big deal out of it. Just try to help people as much as you can.
I've been all over the world. I love New York, I love Paris, San Francisco, so many places. But there's no place like New Orleans. It's got the best food. It's got the best music. It's got the best people. It's got the most fun stuff to do.
Life is really like that: there are certain things that are wonderful and certain things that are not so wonderful and what you are going to do about it. With grace and with dignity, move through them. Deal with them.
New Orleans is my essence, my soul, my muse. . .
I never dated much. I dated one girl before my wife, and that was it.
It is really rare to find someone you really, really love and that you want to spend your life with and all that stuff that goes along with being married. I am one of those lucky people. And I think she feels that way too. So the romantic stuff is easy because you want them to be happy.
I have always said to workers that they have to work hard, to produce more and better. In Chile, we need to achieve an average annual income of US$2,000, and to do that we need to increase production.
The University of Miami is not a campus with visible school spirit, just visible tan lines.
Black love is black wealth
Life's short, so if you're going to spend months doing something, it's gotta be pretty special. . . But I'm very happy to enter my Baby Jane years, and hopefully segue into the Ruth Gordon years.
